AMG Review of Unclogged

Denise Sullivan
All Music Guide

Perhaps referring to the staid forum known as contemporary "unplugged music," or their own aging arteries, Unclogged successfully reprises X's finest work in an electro-acoustic live set. No worse for the wear, John Doe and Exene Cervenka are in perfect voice, while Tony Gilkyson and D.J. Bonebrake play the songs they played a million times with the renewed spirit of a band that can finally relax and rest on its laurels. If there was ever anything to prove -- that X was a supreme live band or that Doe and Cervenka were two of the most talented songwriters to come out of punk -- this is the evidence.
