Johnny Cash once said "God likes a Southern accent, and He tolerates country music and quite a bit of guitar". Now what we have got here is a lot of guitar by a bunch of lonesome western heroes who walk the line between heaven and hell. This is the kind of music that you probably get when God and Satan will record an album together.
Dirtball's third full-length album was recorded in an old barn outside of Richmond, a little south of heaven for the band's devil-charged anachronistic roots-rock. The album - named after a quote by Neil Young - is absolutely made to crank up the volume of your record player to maximum.
The infectious 'Turn Up the Barn' slowly kicks off with '3 AM', a sing-along road song, but when Hanks Williams meets the Tragically Hip in 'Holy Ground', the wooden walls of this old barn really start shaking. Though Dirtball's music draws from many hard rockin' 60s, 70s music, and punk roots influences, songs such as 'The Best I Can Do' and the Bible-quoting 'Over and Over' reflect some of the finest country & western heartache. With also some of the meanest banjo picking and their "No Depression" songs about whiskey, women, and redemption, 'Turn Up the Barn' is like a Bible to any hillbilly soul.
