...left the garage of gold for the barn, like Wilco or the Counting Crows, and much of Garage d'Or has hints of country in its sound. The music gets janglier and vocalist David Lowery sounds more like a has-been. The new material is actually pretty good; but instead of being genius and entertaining, it's merely "haunting."

The next task is to fight off those dangerous Yemenites. Jackson becomes agitated after three of his troops are shot, so instead of focussing on warding off the snipers that are firing at the embassy, he has his men open fire into the crowd below. Women, children and elderly people die along with the more dispensable young men. It's a gruesome blood bath. America does not look good. The national security...
