Synopsis

Product Description

The Dirty Heads comfortably combine hip-hop and reggae with somewhat lesser dollops of conventional rock songwriting and arrangements on Any Port in a Storm. While those are the three main styles the group blend, they don't always use all three idioms in the same song, some tracks coming close to being straight hip-hop, reggae, and/or rock. Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan are even referenced in "Believe." It's an unusual mixture, but more clever than exciting, without standout tunes or lyrics. Topics for the latter include statements of mild musical and social outsiderdom, declarations of pride for sticking to their principles, and the occasional nod to romance. A fair amount of profanity is used, but hardly in an aggressive manner, almost as if it's running a little counter to their generally upbeat natures. Billy Preston appears on keyboards in one of the last sessions he recorded before his death. ~ Richie Unterberger

CD Reviews

Great album, but incorrect labeling-NOT explicit

Heather Baker | 04/30/2010

(3 out of 5 stars)

"This of course is an excellent album (5 Stars!),and any Dirty Heads fan would agree, however this is labeled as explicit when it is in fact the edited version!! Amazon promptly took care of me, and directed me to the original version. Enjoy!!"

I can't get enough of this CD!!

W. Masters | Sacramento, CA | 05/21/2010

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is my new favorite CD. Of all time. The Dirty heads have PACKED this CD with 23 friggin' awesome songs and they're practically giving it away! If you pirate this CD instead of buying it, you have NO conscience! This CD is really, really good! Seriously.... buy it now.

Oh, and my copy is the explicit content version as advertised."

Great First Album

Italiswede | Massachusetts | 05/08/2010

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I had a chance to see this band open up for Sublime with Rome at the house of Blues in Boston. They put on a great show. I usually don't like a band the first time I hear them, but they sounded great. They are a hip-hop/ reggae band with 2 singers/ rappers. The first minute you hear them you will realize they are influenced by Sublime. Which is a great thing because Sublime happens to be my favorite band all time. There are some great catchy guitar riffs with some heavy bass lines that will put your stereo system to the test. The lyrics are very strong and written from the heart. For me,there are about 6 great songs on this album. More than half of the album is written more towards the females. So the ladies should like this album a little more than the guys. If you like sublime, you should definitely give this band a try. You will not be disappointed."
