Drive-By Truckers The Dirty South 180g 2LP (Vinyl)

TAS Rated 4/5 Music, 4.5/5 Sonics in the April/May 2008 Issue of The Absolute Sound!

With The Dirty South, the DBTs have crafted an equally effective companion piece to Decoration Day that plays on the gangsta rap reference of its title with a set of vividly rendered portraits of life along the margins of respectability below the Mason-Dixon line, from laid-off factory rats dealing drugs to feed their kids to Alabama gangsters determined to shut down the cops who made their daughters cry.

"Recorded on two-inch analog tape, the bold, brawny sound presents the Truckers in all their ragged glory." - Bob Gendron, The Absolute Sound, April/May 2008
