Push Comes to Shove (1994)

EW's GRADE
B-

Details Lead Performance: Jackyl; Genre: Rock

These rednecks-who take chainsaw solos, use a 12-gauge shotgun for a microphone stand, and ambush alternative rock and political correctness in their numbskull lyrics-lack the chops to even hint at Lynyrd Skynyrd-level Dixie-boogie greatness. Still, how can you hate a gang of Georgia mud-stompers whose handlebar-mustachioed frontman owes his Jack Daniels-drooling growl to Jim Dandy Mangrum of Black Oak Arkansas and his name to Jesse James?
