    You can hear their pleasure in draping that gorgeous sound across these 14 original songs, even if some of the the songs themselves can seem functionally equivalent to coat hangers, and about as interesting.

    If you've ever been worried that good old Southern-fried boogie is an endangered species, then Dixie Lullabies should help you rest a little easier.

    These original songs may be recently written, but they are steeped in familiar structures, with lyrics full of references to drinking and loose women.

    Drive-By Truckers may have all of the indie cred, but Dixie Lullabies is a welcome reminder that Kentucky Headhunters are still one of the finest Southern-rock outfits around.
