OK, so the gauntlet has been thrown down. Thunder Chicken has been called names. Specifically, allmusic.com called it "one of the few truly wild and unruly records to come from the rock & roll tradition in the 21st century." Re-read that last sentence one more time. They're also calling producer Dan Prothero "the true king of raw." We missed this glowing praise the first time around, and would like to simply accept the compliment, but feel compelled have to ask: Are we worthy? How can anyone know such a thing? Which is where you come in. Maybe it's time to pick up a copy and let us know?
