    The Rising sounded like a formulaic album made out of patriotic duty. Despite its flaws, formulaic is not an adjective that applies to most of Devils and Dust, an album that rarely does what you expect it to.

    In time, Devils & Dust will be regarded as an inspired stopgap. [Jun 2005, p.105]

"Devils and Dust" has everything you'd look for. Tuneful melodies and immaculate lyrics delivered in an atmosphere that projects a subtle brilliance. Simple but all the more outstanding for it.… Full Review »
