- NEW DIRECTION
A brilliant album which takes the Dixie Chicks in a slightly new direction musically, appealing not just to Country fans but across the whole spectrum.
All the fans will have a copy already but for anybody new to the band I would just say don't hesitate-this is sensational!
"Not Ready To Make Nice", especially if you know the history,must be one of the most powerful and evocative anthems of the last 30 years, up there with the likes of "Bat Out Of Hell" and "Total Eclipse Of The Heart".
This album marks the Chicks' first serious attempt at songwriting. If they can maintain the standard of "Not Ready..." it would put them on the level of the legendary Jim Steinman.
HOT TIP- buy the double album. Disc 2 is a DVD containing 5 tracks from the AOL studio sessions where the girls are backed only by what seems to be the accoustic section of the band; also a sensational music video of "Not Ready...." and an in-depth discussion between the Chicks and producer Rick Rubin on how he took them in a new direction musically in the making of the album.
This has been well-worth waiting for!

You can feel the pain in her voice from knowing she cheated her entire troup out of millions of dollars with her childish comments. I bet Natalie winds up in the gutter somewhere or worse. The albums just ok but way too depressing for normal people. Maybe the liberals will buy a few. I'm glad she's not in Texas anymore.
Rating: - Fantastic, very personal music
I'm not a big fan of country music, so I was skeptical when my friend gave me this CD for my birthday. That being said, it has not come out of my cd player since. Several of the songs on the album are very personal, and resonate very strongly for me on a deeply emotional level. "I'm not ready to make nice" makes me cry almost every time I listen to it. It describes my feelings about a current life situation very clearly, and conveys how angry I feel about what has happened both now and in the past. "Lubbock or Leave it" could have been my own life story with a few details changed. "Lullaby" is a beautifully lyrical love song that touches my heart. "Favorite Year" is a nostalgia driven song that makes me want to be in the arms of the one I love. "Silent House" is so sad, it breaks my heart to listen to it. I highly recommend this disc to anyone who likes music that means something.

The Dixie Chicks' came back with a #1 album and a whole ton of attitude. Opening up with the title track, Natalie Maines and her gal pals take us through heart felt confessions and foot stomping pissiness. I had heard them perform "I Hope" a few weeks before this came out on some concert show and since I did like their last album and pretty much love Natalie's attitude, I figured I'd buy this one if I found it priced cheap enough.
But then on the season finale of the TV series Medium, they kept playing this haunting little song with groovy little harmonies, "how long do you wanna be loved? is forever enough/ is forever enough?" and I fell in love. Imagine my happiness when they announced at the end of the show that the music was from the new Dixie Chicks' album. I ran out and bought it the day it came out and I love it. The song is called "Lullabye" and as of right now it's my fav on the album.
On top of those two there is some kick butt stuff on here including "Not Ready To Make Nice" where she addresses her public's opinion of her or the public who disdains her, and her unapologetic opinions on Bush and the state of the world are addressed in a few other songs but no where as good as that one. The whole album is great with fun harmonies, heartfelt lyrics and an unabashed attitude which I love.
