Gentlemen Husbands have released their debut album titled "Something Along The Lines Of "A Lesson In Unprofessionalism." This album is one of those ones where the band has gone for a more small town indie sound with a bit of country added into it. They have a similar sound to that of a Wilco or The Sadies, so if you like those artists, you could possibly like this album. Not a bad job here. When looking at the recording quality of this album, the album has been recorded pretty decently here. They have a sound that seems to be standing u which is very important. The instrumentation is not bad either, the band can play and there are flashes of ability there, so we will see what they can really do in the future hopefully. Now onto the vocals and lyrics, the vocals here are a little twangy and go with that indie country sound quite well. He is quite clear and he can certainly sing. We think the singer is perfect for the sound and style the band is going for. With the lyrics, the band has gone for messages of what life was like as a new adult, girls, aspirations of life and relationships. This seems to be a little off what a lot of people think of or have going on in their life, but we think at least one song on the album can relate to the average working class folks. If you are looking for a single to this album, there isn't one, so just pick a song and give it a listen to get the idea of the album. Gentlemen Husbands have made an album that hits the average working class, smaller town folks. This isn't really bad or good, but we fell that as they don't have a wide market of people to get into their music, it will be a little harder to succeed. We think they have done a solid job on this album though. Hopefully the band can get out more and get more people to know about them. Good job overall. Listen to this album to decide for yourself what you think of it.
