Conor Oberst's Desaparecidos drop a politically charged comeback album.

5.0

pitchfork

On Read Music/Speak Spanish, Desaparecidos saw themselves in the lineage of the Clash. 13 years later on Payola, they find their inner Sex Pistols: more cynical, more in character, taking advantage of no-win, no-future situations to create potent, punk rock theater. It is by far Conor Oberst's most fun record. Because really, it's his only fun record.
