Bring Yo' Ass To The Table is the second full-length album by the Indiana rock band Left Lane Cruiser, their first under the Alive Records label. [3]
AllMusic called the album "stunning," writing that "this is the blues in their purest form, rough and ragged, rubbed raw by too much hard living and too many tough breaks." [1] Exclaim! wrote that the duo "certainly sound ready to compete with peers like the Black Keys ... [they] actually possess enough chops to write some memorable songs." [4] The Star Tribune wrote that "the lo-fi, hard punk-blues sound is raw, gritty and often ferocious, thanks to singer Joe Evans' aggressive slide guitar and Brenn Beck's minimalist percussion." [5]

Acid rock is a loosely defined type of rock music that evolved out of the mid-1960s garage punk movement and helped launch the psychedelic subculture.

Its distinctions from other genres can be tenuous, as much of the style overlaps with '60s punk, proto-metal, and early heavy, blues-based hard rock.

The album's sound was explored by Burnside in his later works.
