Product Description:
Think of this long awaited studio album as if it were the first Pretenders record: musical turf that's defined by attitude, lyrical and melodic mastery, and the unexpected...and Chrissie Hynde's voice as you've always known it. "Break Up The Concrete" is an authentic slice of rock Americana, ranging from blistering punk to the most delicate storytelling as told by the queen of rock royalty herself.

I'm gay but there's always been one woman for me: Chrissie Hynde. OK, so I spent a few years in Purgatory (Ohio) but she's always been my rock'n'roll savior.

Second song, slow, still great songwriting, press next....my head is getting that twinge it gets when listening to country music. More country. Oh, a great blues tune...but still sounds country-ish. Lots of that ... Read More

The Pretenders have not made a great album since "Learning to Crawl" ... maybe it's time to try Rick Rubin.
