Treaty Oak Revival will leave country music fans disappointed in their new album, Talco Tapes, in which they tried to give old songs a Texas swing. 

The album consists of eight older songs that were revamped. The twist they attempt to put on the old songs is an old-time, Texas style that also resembles an acoustic track. 

The album has limited drum usage and adds violins to make up for some of the background. This is a complete flip from their original style, which is usually heavy in bass. 

The tempo in the songs are also slowed to give them a calm, Southern feeling. The eight old songs were originally created with a faster pace and they sound much better that way. 

Changing the pace does not work very well on the old songs, especially “Stop & Stare.” The original version of the song and most of the other original versions use the energy given off by the quicker tempo and bass to fire up the audience and show the passion in the lyrics. 

Treaty Oak Revival fans would be better off only listening to the new song in the album, “Name”. It is the only song that fits the style it is played in. Since the song was created at this pace, the different pieces of instruments and the lyrics fit better together. 

Fans can only hope they go back to their old ways and continue with the style that works for them.
