I recently bought the "What the Toll Tells" album by this band. Has anyone else heard it yet?

I have to say that I like the album quite a bit. It's sort of a fusion of blues, folk rock and punk rock (among other things). Like the Decemberists, a lot of the songs are set in the past. However, instead of a Victorian England setting, the Two Gallants sing about Early-twentieth century Americana.

As for the tracks, I particularily like "Los Cruces Jail", "Steady Rollin'" and "Long Summer Day"

I downloaded "Las Cruces Jail" a while ago for some friends who used to live in Las Cruces. It was enjoyable song, but it wasn't enough for me to pursue anything else from them.
