From the Atomic Duster website (dated September), they give SMYT 8 out of 10:
Frank Black and the Catholics - Show Me Your Tears (Cooking Vinyl)
"Thirteen salty tears" is how Frank himself described this album.
T: The legend returns. Well he's certainly a legend in my eyes anyway, having recorded some of the finest work with both the Pixies and the Catholics known to mankind. Future single "Nadine" is a case in point, making all the right dirty noises, being followed by the mellow "Everything Is New" which, incidentally, on its rightful place on the album actually works better than it did as a single. This is not a sad album, much as Mr.Black himself would have you believe, it is in fact rather an optimistic one. Probably one of the best releases he has made with the Catholics.
N: I didn't think you'd need a reason to like this, but you've certainly backed up your reasoning well.
