Ranked #8 in Mojo's "2005 Americana Albums of the Year.", "...These perfectly matched temperaments have created something heartbreaking and haunting--the sonic equivalent of curtains billowing in an open window." - Grade: B+, 3 stars out of 5 - "...Sounds like an indie update of Bruce Springsteen's NEBRASKA moved 300 miles to the Southwest....", 4 stars out of 5 - "The famed Calexico textures add menace to gripping ballad 'Prison On Route 41', a dark giddiness to the title track, and clutter Red Dust's Southern swampiness with bleached bones."
