Notes on the Dirty Truckers and the Kickbacks
By MICHAEL BRODEUR | September 3, 2008
The Dirty Truckers |
I’m not one to gossip, so you didn’t hear it from me, but it seems the DIRTY TRUCKERS and the KICKBACKS are getting serious. Everybody said it couldn’t work: the former, gruff Cheapish Tricky rockers hooked on licks; the latter a bit alt-er, a little bluer, probably clean of house and good in the kitchen. But a shared fondness for Paul Westerberg and beer has bridged the gap: word is they have a date at Church this Friday, September 5 (with AM STEREO. . . awkward!), and, not to get too detailed here, but they plan on releasing their new discs at the same time — right in front of everyone! Is that moving a bit fast or what?
