Dirt Don't Hurt [LP] [10/14]

Spin (p.95) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Adorned with gospel shouts, errant banjo licks, and a smattering of unusual percussion, these tunes could easily slot onto a Harry Smith Folkways anthology of field recordings..." Dirty Linen (p.93) - "Most of the songs were self-penned, but it's a testament to the band's vision that the few genuine old-timey cuts, such as 'Cluck Old Hen,' fit the spirit and mood so well." Mojo (Publisher) (p.109) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "'Getting High For Jesus' rewrites Dylan's 'Tombstone Blues' as exuberant rockabilly; 'For All This' and 'Indeed You Do' are vexed, spooked-sounding laments." Record Collector (magazine) (p.88) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[T]here's no denying she plays it with verve and buckets of attitude." Clash (Magazine) (p.109) - "'Dirt Don't Hurt' takes the onus out of stuffy production and sticks the importance back into the magic of a song as 'My 45' conjures Parton-esque pride with first class harmonies....A contender for album of the year -- sensational!"
