Product Details

J. Roddy Walston has been a fixture in the sweaty, committed end of American rock and roll for years, the kind of pianist-frontman who plays like the instrument owes him money. Destroyers Of The Soft Life finds the band leaning into the tension between roots instincts and something heavier and more urgent, a record that rewards listeners who believe rock and roll still has something to prove.

Four years after the release of their raucous breakout album Essential Tremors, Richmond's J. Roddy Walton & The Business is back with a new album, Destroyers of the Soft Life. On Destroyers, the band melds engaging, melodic songwriting with sharp observations about American culture without skimping on the energy or attitude that makes them one of the most exciting rock bands today. The 'bar band' sound of the past has evolved into a booming cacophony that could fill stadiums.
