Daniel Amos' Shotgun Angel is their transitional album between country and the more straight-ahead rock of Horrendous Disc. A comparison with the Eagles is unavoidable, especially on the title track and 'Father's Arms.' The group's penchant for silliness shines through on the cowpunk country rave-up 'Meal.' Side two of the album contains an eschatological rock opera of sorts based on scenes from the book of Revelations. A little too wide-eyed and doomsaying for most modern audiences, but an appropriate song cycle for a band named after two minor prophets. From this song cycle, a notable track is 'Better,' which sounds uncommonly like psychedelic Beatles.
