This came out in 2005 — or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
Between his raspy growl, sad-sack stance and forlorn lyrics, Toronto singer-songwriter NQ Arbuckle is a troubled country-folk troubadour of the first order.
And between the loose-limbed, rangy rootsiness of his songs and fellow singer-guitarist Luke Doucet’s understatedly haunting production, the dozen dark, stark confessions on his sophomore disc The Last Supper In A Cheap Town make the perfect late-night soundtrack to your next broken-hearted drinking binge. Bottoms up.
