detroit rock in honor of super bowl xl

in the words of my good buddy buddha, "the dirtbombs are what the stooges would sound like if they were fronted by clarence carter." mick collins, formerly of the gories, brings his soulful voice to the dirtbombs. this is raw rock infused with the perfect amount of soul that creates some excellent party music. i dare anyone to listen and not have the urge to want to chug beer and jump around like a jackass. these tracks come from ultraglide in black, which is an album primarily of covers of classic funk and soul tracks from the 60's and 70's. what is remarkable about this album is that the tracks, even if not changed, get revitalized for the 21st century. so without further adeau, here are some songs to get you going for the weekend.

- the thing
- ode to a black man
- your love belongs under a rock
