Critic Reviews
Show All-
Rolling Stone
Springsteen’s most audacious record since the home-demo American Gothic of 1982’s Nebraska
-
The Guardian
formulaic is not an adjective that applies to most of Devils and Dust, an album that rarely does what you expect it to
-
Paste Magazine
Devils & Dust is Bruce at his best and worst—apologetic and disillusioned, brave and steadfast, disengaged and hopeful
-
AV Club
The volume's gone down, but the intensity remains.
-
Pop Matters
but it is this conventionality, in its acceptance of older American forms of music, where the disc hits its mark
-
All Music
it's his strongest record in a long time
-
BBC
with some really neat picking, great Steve Earle style guitar licks and fine fiddling this "Bruce-lite album" is a great sound
-
New York Magazine
Its best songs break new ground for Springsteen.
-
Music OMH
a wonderfully thoughtful collection of stories
-
Anti Music
it's a rather wondrous in-between release that houses enough emotional bite for it to be deemed a significant Springsteen album
-
The Sydney Morning Herald
a masterful album of storytelling and of heart and bone
-
Treble
I still heartily recommend Devils & Dust which is really saying something
-
The Lonely Telecaster
a powerful, if slightly uneven slice of Americana that demands a few listens to soak in
-
The Coast
Springsteen remains an artist who continues to advance his craft as a consummate musician and songwriter
