Ten Shekel Shirt's sophomore release takes us beyond the participation of tapping a steering wheel, mouthing choruses and humming verses. Risk is more than the sum of its breezy melodies, organic rhythms, and novel ideas. It is a fresh encounter with burning bushes, a splash of living water in the face of our culture's curse of triviality. In a genre often characterized by glossy, tepid lyrics, Risk rejects high fructose discourse, venturing into more credible spheres of salinity and substance.
