Uncle Tupelo No Depression (Legacy Edition)

"...with thunderous gales of guitar grunge...the songs--aching ballads and country-punk raveups--careen forward with equal parts urgency and earnestness. This is what it would have sounded like if Hank Williams had fronted Husker Du."
Ranked #63 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s."
4 stars out of 5 - "...A grainy authority permeates 1990's NO DEPRESSION..."
4 stars out of 5 - "...It's the most rock-oriented album they made, owing as much to Husker Du as to Hank Williams..."
Included in A.P.'s "10 Essential Alt-Country Albums" - "...Countrified punk rock with a few acoustic parlor songs interspersed to break up the train-wreck pace..."
The Bob (Fall/90) - "'No Depression' is a Norman Rockwell illustration turned upside down, a portrait of the American heartland that offers no hope, no joy, no alternatives, and no escape...As bleak as this landscape gets, Uncle Tupelo lifts the mood by conducting themselves like a rural power trio, mixing equal parts Who-style guitar lunacy and Husker Du-ish tidal waves of noise."
Paste (magazine) - "Its sound was refreshingly unvarnished, the band striving for passion over perfection, authenticity over hip cachet."
Pitchfork (Website) - "[S]omething remarkable: a raw, lonesome clatter, the singular sound of Midwestern kids getting loud and desperate."
