    They are THE reason I started listening to country, and this disc, their latest, solidifies their genius.

    The new sound is terrific! I loved the instrumental song. However, after awhile they all started to sound the same.

    Utter perfection. I am so glad the chicks refused to follow in so many other 'country' artists by going pop. Each song is a masterpiece, perfectly put together and executed..their IMMENSE talent is to be admired. Faith, Shania, etc have NOTHING on these girls. THose two coast on their looks, while the Dixie Chicks brilliantly play their own instruments and produce and write.... Utter perfection.

    This is Nas best album since his debut Illmatic. There is some filler for example "Smokin". But overall this is Nas most introspective and consistent album since his debut.

    Ask Entertainment Weekly or CMT this is one of the GREATEST COUNTRY albums ever made. With the genre of Country being invaded by large pop influences this album easily goes down as one that is purely true to the original Bluegrass roots of Country, this album is incredible.

    This is a really good album with many heartbreaking songs especially the last one. The chicks harmonies sound amazing as they jump from songs about veterans at war to excellent covers.

    I love the Dixie Chicks! My all time favorite song is Landslide, I never liked the Stevie Nicks version of Landslide it was too slow and dull but Dixie Chicks remade Landslide into a hit, this song is so addicting and I love everything about the Dixie Chicks version of Landslide, great guitar work, great vocals, and it's an upbeat catchy song that never gets old.

    They are incapable of shaping a song, teasing out tension, friction or emotional swoop; they're happy to just play it.

    Although Home isn't entirely successful, it doesn't get out-and-out boring until the second half, laden with generic songs about believing in love and needing more of it, plus a lullaby that sounds like Don Henley's "The End of the Innocence."

    An album that continues their mission of yanking bluegrass into the modern era. [#9, p.149]
