Reviews
3.5 stars out of 5 -- "ANCIENT & MODERN, their first in four four years, is meaty and grizzled folk rock.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "An album that looks back to the past as much as it does to the present and future....The Mekons manage to sound as fresh and vital now as they did then.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "The driving, irascible 'Honey Bear' burns brightest, balancing out the record's driftier moments.", "Their decision to harken back to the year 1911 on their 26th album dovetails nicely with the New Americana wave, though these veterans get grittier than any of those new jacks..."
