I was going to write some shit about how this album (an album of primarily soul and R&B covers) is THE Dirtbombs album to check out and wax on and on as to why, but blah blah lah dee dah. None of that really matters. None of it should take away from the fact that this album kicks major ass and that's all you really need to know. Check out a couple prime cuts...

I'm loving these 2 jams.
hit send too quick...
Never checked these guys before but there was an article on them in Wax Poetics last month. Check it out.
Oh, word. I'll check it out.
I just saw they're currently touring with TV on the Radio. They'll be here in LA at the Wiltern on November 6&7. Hell yes. Hopefully, we'll be celebrating our nation's first black president.
Here's to black dudes and dudettes taking back rock and taking back the country that was built on their stolen labor.
I'm sure we want to keep politics and WWALT separate, but I couldn't resist... dude is REAL.
Power to the people.
(I almost forgot I was white for a second there.)
Fired up!
:X
ha!
I'll pick this up just based on their name and those two tracks. Thanks for the post.
i had forgotten about this record....thanks for the reminder, it's juicy...the Detroit Cobra's "Baby" isnt as good but it has a couple of gems on it
