Rock N Roll

Wearing his intentions on his sleeve in a nearly cynical manner, Ryan Adams called the album Rock N Roll, though in a fit of rebellious piss and vinegar, the artwork has it displayed as a mirror image: Llor N Kcor, which isn't quite Efil4Zaggin, but the spirit is nonetheless appreciated. The title is so simple, it belies the fact that this is a bit of a concept album on Adams part, a conscious attempt to better the Strokes and the White Stripes at their own game, while he performs a similar synthesis of glam rock and Paul Westerberg while dabbling in the new new wave of new wave spearheaded by Interpol, to prove that he can do the arty thing too.
