SimenGJan 28, 2006I thought I'd heard the best of him, but this album definetely proves that he still has "it". He "paints" stories like only Dylan can... SimenG - Norway

GerardoLNov 18, 2005Marvelous album, Springsteen's vision of the human experience ever insightful, colorful, adventurous, an artist that's learned a thing or two along the way, yet as wide-eyed in wonderment as ever! A triumph!

AndrewLJul 24, 2005With each song, the stories are so enthralling and well-told, I felt like I was there as each story was happening. It was like reading the best collection of short stories ever written, set to music.

BillyBJul 8, 2005Springsteen fan for many, many years. The lyrics are the best he's done. Black Cowboys? is there any other song in recent memory that inspires more reflection? He's the greatest!

MattPJun 30, 2005Devils & Dust is Simple and beautiful . 'Reno' reads and sounds like a harder edged version of 'Blind Willie McTell'. Alone woth the price of admission.

hatimjJun 19, 2005As a fun of the Boss, I would like to say that his new album is incredible and it concern our dialy life Devils & dust is special and deep, it reachs the heart's inside.

ScottYJun 17, 2005More like Tunnel of Love and less like The Ghost of Tom Joad, which is a good tihng. This is not dark and dreary like GOTJ, and even has a rocker or two. If this were grouped with Tom Joad and Nebraska, this one buries all of them.

RyanGJun 15, 2005A more reflective Springsteen provides a very deep and soul-searching Album.
-
-
MattJun 10, 2005The only slight weakness on this album is that it owes itself a lot to Dylan's sound. Otherwise, it combines the lyrical excellence of Ghost Of Tom Joad with some more punch.

MikeMMay 15, 2005Beauful and painful stories. Bruce evokes emotion in his music in a way that no other musician in his generation has.

michaelkMay 15, 2005A superb album. Springsteen is a rare talent, never afraid to challange his audience. Devils and dust challange's us and more.

MarkRMay 15, 2005Some of the songs are among his best, and none among his worst, but many could be better with a different voal treatment, such as Silver Palomino, All I'm Thinkin' About and Matamoros Banks. But overall, an excellent album.

MartyDMay 13, 2005This is an album lover's album. Reno is one of his best.
-
-
acavanahMay 12, 2005this is a dark album, sparse musically, but the narratives are vivid and poignant. There are one or two dire tracks, All Im thinking about and the hitter but overall I found it and thought provoking and intriguing.

BenHMay 12, 2005I give Devils and Dust an A+. Bolstering Brian

CurtMMay 10, 2005Nice, but a bit monotonous singing.

LukeSMay 8, 2005Like sitting around a campfire, staring at the stars, and contemplating life with Bruce--nothing better.

-
SimonWMay 8, 2005Some high points, especially the title track & Long Time Coming, but Reno, why?

MikeAMay 6, 2005Moody, soft folk music, along with beautiful, often moving lyrics. Another great Springsteen album, which makes one wonder, can the Boss fail?

AdamGMay 4, 2005Very good album. It could not be more different than the Rising. (which I thought was great) My personal favorite on this album is the magnificent "The Hitter."

Awards & Rankings
-
Alas, it's not as consistently satisfying as 'Born To Run' or 'Born In The USA', and Springsteen's voice, always gravely at the best of times, has taken on an increasingly wizened air that sometimes renders it frustratingly impenetrable.
-
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.

Entertainment WeeklyDevils is a more mature effort than Joad and Nebraska, for being a little less bleak. [29 Apr 2005, p.144]
