A late-career surge for a band that never quite fit the mold, "Hotel Last Resort" sounds remarkably like Violent Femmes, for better and for worse.
- The album was recorded at three different locations: Dave's Drum Shop in Milwaukee, Gatterdam Music in Oak Creek, and Woodshed Recording in Malibu.
- Guest vocals on "I'm Getting What I Want Today" are provided by the label-mates Blaise Garza and Gordon Gano.
- The album charted at number 17 on the US Independent Albums chart.
Violent Femmes are a Milwaukee-formed band known for their blend of folk-punk and alternative rock, characterized by acoustic instrumentation and Gordon Gano's distinct vocal delivery. "Hotel Last Resort" arrived in 2019, marking their first studio album in over a decade and continuing their output as a veteran act in the alternative scene.
