Two years after the critical success of her breakout second album, Indestructible Machine, Lydia Loveless emerges from the trenches of hometown Columbus, OH with the gloves off and brimming with confidence on Somewhere Else. While her previous album was described as hillbilly punk with a honky-tonk heart (Uncut), this one can't be so quickly shoehorned into neat categorical cubbyholes. No, things are different this time around Loveless and her band have collectively dismissed the genre blinders and sonic boundaries that come from playing it from a safe,familiar place.
