Drive-By Truckers' The Dirty South, available Tuesday

Also coming out this week is the new record from Drive-By Truckers, The Dirty South. I haven't heard the whole thing, but you can download three tracks from their website. Sounds like more good stuff from the Truckers, if maybe a little darker than their last record. This is a band that just keeps rolling, releasing The Dirty South only 16 months after Decoration Day. They are taking Allison Moorer out for part of their current tour, and that's about the perfect bill from my perspective (alas, no Texas dates). Note that Jason Isbell's wife, Shonna Tucker, has taken over bass duties. She and Isbell used to perform as a duo before the Trukcers recruited him.

Be sure to check out the record and Drive-By Truckers on tour.
