After touring in support of their 1993 masterpiece, Anodyne, the seminal alternative country
band Uncle Tupelo split up over long-simmering creative differences between co-leaders
Jay Farrar and Jeff Tweedy. Tweedy recruited much of the band to form Wilco,
while Farrar teamed up with original Tupelo drummer Mike Heidorn to form Son Volt,
the more tradition-minded of the two Tupelo offshoots

Although none of the songs on Straightaways immediately jump off the grooves, as was the case
with the band's brilliant debut, Trace, repeated spins reveal a strong effort nonetheless.

release to explore new territory, Son Volt leader and songwriter Jay Farrar keeps his band
mining the same country-folk vein that Uncle Tupelo quarried...(AllMusic)
