The first complete studio album from the "definitive" lineup that recorded Yardsale This Week. Mostly recorded in a marathon two-day session at Downtown Recording in Louisville, KY with some additional recording done by Jordan Forst, Yardsale pulled out all the stops for Knock Alley West. From the balls out rock of "Until I Can't Remember" and "Secondhand Girlfriend" to the straight country of "Dream of Amarillo"; from the apocalypse of "Mississippi's Flooding" to the heartfelt beauty of "Reflection" and "Slow Motion", Knock Alley West showcases all the strengths of a twangy rock band in their prime. And it tastes great too!
