Welcome to the Midnight Opry [KLP236] is the third full-length album by The Pine Hill Haints. It’s a burning tumbleweed headed straight for an open field in the middle of a dry summer; bright, dangerous, vast, and blistering. Laid out before you is a full rotation of snazzed-up, working class ghost-country. The contradiction allows you to mentally wander from one track to the other on an emotional journey from the…
