The saying goes, "never look a gift horse in the mouth".  It's supposed to be bad form, but in this case you're going to find a whole lot more than a good set of teeth. Gifthorse is an odd band to come out of Detroit amidst a sea of hip-hop hucksters and garage rock wanna-bees, but imagine a careful blend of CSN, The Eagles, Bare Naked Ladies, Stone Temple Pilots and a dose of The Grateful Dead thrown in for good measure. That's a holiday recipe that will keep your innards warm while the cold wind blows down the Cass Corridor.  Definitely not a sound you'd expect to spring from the urban decay of po'town, but then considering how many people have already left Detroit,  nobody should be surprised it produced at least one "Tumbleweed" - which is the title of their debut album. There's some real good stuff here.  - Mitch
