Sounds Like“A Cash/Carter-Cash for the 21st century, they sing of doomed incestuous love, local serial killers and creative uses for human remains. The simplicity of the arrangements belies a complex interplay between their constituent elements . . . The Dirt's songs have clearly been compressed, cut and polished to perfection.” - Sean Welsh, live review for Is This Music? ........................................................................."Alt-country gone bad and it's also a pretty damn near perfect trip down the road to redemption. From the bleakly humorous subject matter of their songs to those country style harmonies, The Dirt proved to be an unexpected pleasure." - Bluesbunny
