Not long after Patterson Hood gave us the spoken word version of the Drive-By Truckers' new record A Blessing And A Curse, the album itself arrived in our grubby, ashy, quivery hands. If we could stop listening to it for ten minutes we might take the time to give you the track-by-track analysis, but this shit comes out in April! Y'all can wait. For now, go hear the first single "Feb 14", and check the tracklisting and the who-wrote-what after the jump.
