Snake in the Radio

The album was recorded between September 2004 and November 2005. ==Critical reception==

AllMusic wrote: "Pickerel's voice has the shaky intensity of an unholy combination of Roy Orbison and Chris Isaak, while the ramshackle production, overseen by grunge legend Steve Fisk, provides an appropriately unsettling musical backdrop." The Riverfront Times wrote that "if you need a soundtrack for savoring that late-night, as-yet-indefinite pensive mood, this is just the thing." PopMatters wrote: "Call it maturity, wanderlust, the need to maintain artistic relevance, or the realization that much of grunge was roots rock with more guitar distortion, but this Americana-by-way-of-Seattle storyline (for lack of a better description) has been an enjoyable development." Seattle Weekly wrote the songs "could be the soundtrack to a David Lynch flick set in a Bakersfield honky tonk." == Track listing ==
