Down in the Shacks Where the Satellite Dishes Grow, the second album from Knoxville, Tennessee's Judybats, followed their debut Native Son on Sire, and it comes with a title that reads like a short story about the wired-up rural South. The music is melodic alternative rock with more jangle than crunch, and David Jenkins keeps the drums brisk and tidy underneath.
"Saturday" was the song that gave it legs, climbing to No. 21 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart. The band followed it with Pain Makes You Beautiful.
