    "Everyone has a favorite drinking album. Right now, mine is REVIVAL."
    -- Seattle Weekly

    "A voice to turn good girls bad...Maybe crazy but damn exciting."
    -- The Village Voice

    "What? You want some kind of description of the artist and his music? Just fucking listen to the guy and enjoy his prowess."
    -- Frank Black a.k.a. Black Francis

    "Best 50 Albums of the Year"
    -- Alternative Press

    "A soot-black sense of humor as biting as an underfed Rottweiler."
    --Cleveland Free Times

    "One of America's best -- and most underrated -- songwriters."
    -- PopMatters

    "REVIVAL has the immediacy of a blues album...too idiosyncratic to be summed up in one category."
    -- In Pittsburgh

    "The bastard child of Sinatra and Lemmy. Great epic, minimalist rock tunes with that end of the night feel."
    --Random Magazine UK

    "A proudly weird talent with a nervy raw appeal."
    --Time Out New York

    "Best Actual Gig of the Year. Very very impressive."
    --Sleazegrinder UK

    "Four Stars"
    -- German Rolling Stone

    “For all his simplicity, Reid is like nobody else.”

    -- CMJ New Music Monthly

    "Reduce-you-to-tears razor wit...Reid Paley ought to be a household name."
    --Pittsburgh City Paper

    "One of the East Coast's best-kept secrets, his wryly misanthropic schtick is all his own. Live, he is the Bill Hicks of the blues. You need to see him."
    --What's On In London

    "Straightforward, sarcastic, funny and gifted at putting a song together."
    --New York Press

    "For fans of churlish honesty and unaffected one-man shows, REVIVAL is a nonstop riot."
    --San Francisco Weekly

    "A jarring reminder of what rock'n'roll once was and could be again."
    --The Washington Times

    "Reid Paley is the kind of artist Seattle loves."

lyrics

A SONG FOR YOU (FUCK YOU)
(Reid Paley)

Might as well have a drink
Raise it high to you
Time you’re recognized
For all the things you do

After all that we’ve been through
I even wrote this song for you
Fuck you

Deal yourself in twice
Where the credit is due
I don’t need you pal
You know you beg to lose

After all that we’ve been through
I even wrote this song for you
Fuck you

Gotta get back up
Got to get it today
I don’t need you pal
You gonna fade away

After all that we’ve been through
I even wrote this song for you
Fuck you
