Album Description
In a career that has given rise to more than a decade's worth of fine-tuned, highly anticipated and wonderfully received music, the Derailers continue to build the relationship between song, listener and dance floor. Each album has been a mix of well-crafted original songs and cover songs so thoughtfully chosen and so representative of the band, that fans think they are as original as the band themselves. Challenged by their fans to create a sound that mirrors the shuffle of happy boots on a hardwood floor, the Derailers have fed the hungry dancehall crowds with their classic country beats and a 60s pop sensibility.

 Finest Derailers Yet! November 22, 2008
I've been a fan of The Derailers for years, and am so happy to have discovered this latest release. 'Soldiers' had some nice spots, but was definitely a turning point; 'Buck' was a terrific tribute, but nothing original; 'Guaranteed' is the real deal, and perhaps the finest recording from this Austin band ever!
Produced by band-leader Brian Hofeltd, his production sequel after the great 'Under the Influence of Buck' release, I began to wonder why they ever bothered with outside producers - Brian is more than capable as a producer, and this latest project is high on my list of great sounds.
The album itself features some of the best new songs I've heard from the D's in years, including the Tony period, and makes it clear that the corner of the band has been completely turned from the old to the new -- this is a strong, well-produced and enjoyable CD.
The title sums it up for me -- if you are a fan of independent music, with a Bakersfield-meets-Beatles edge, this release is more than satisfactory.
 Good, but not quite the same! October 10, 2008

Sadly I always compare new Derailers albums to the "old style" ones when Tony Villanueva was still in the band. A few tracks on the album remind me of the old style (which is good) but several are corny country (not that special). A good effort from this enduring band but nothing to wet your pants over :-)
