Well, it's a concept album. Thank God it's a concept album by a band that does not take it self seriously. This ain't 2112 - once again - thank God! The first time I listened to Hee Haw Hell I thought, " I could live without the freakin' poems. But then I though, "Your missing the concept, dingus, or maybe just the point." Here's the deal - no one else is doing crazy stuff like this. It's Dash and it sounds great. Hee Haw Hell is frequently goofy and sometimes down right juvenile and I would have it no other way. Buy it and go see them live!

I bought it as a gift for my husband who likes Dash Rip Rock. Personally I don't and I would give it 0 stars (not my taste) but my husband says "5 stars". But for the Dash fan this is likely to be the perfect addition to your collection.

This album is a masterpiece of southern rock, psycho-rockabilly, and cow punk music. Filled with incomparble senses of humor and fan of wits, not to mention, melodies of tunes are great! I hope if I could go to Nashville or New Orleans, to see DASH'S show!

Dash Rip Rock, even though well into middle age has put out several good albums in recent years. Hee Haw Hell is slightly below the quality of PayDirt or Sonic Boom. The songs across the board just aren't as strong and the production is lacking. The theme of the record, a hillbilly rock opera, is relatively well realized with several notable guest stars including Jello Biafra and Mojo Nixon. But, again, the songs as a whole don't live up to the promise of the idea. Still worth checking out if your a fan. Good stuff to be had here for the long-time fan, just not as much as I'd like.
