    Uber Rock - 3 writers Best Of 2015 albums
    TheRockPit.net - Best Of 2015 Albums

    Classic Rock Magazine - 8/10

    Uberrock.co.uk: "'I Have Nothing' that really hit me first listen and is my current favourite song. With a chorus so catchy you will need a frontal lobotomy to get it outta your head. In to Monroe territory again and a tasty Social Distortion guitar break makes it a classic glitter trash anthem in my book."

    "Hazard and Wood manage to pull off the near impossible for two forty-somethings and deliver an album that sounds like snotty teenagers with starry eyes, playing trashy, soon to be hits. From the bedroom to the clubs and the gutters inbetween, they re-live their youth and you will join them."

    "I can safely say there's not one bad track on this gem of an album and if like me you love sleazy rock 'n' roll with heaps of soul then you need this album in your life."

    Bucketlistmusicreviews.com: "Dirtbag Republic’s self-titled debut is a straightforward, no-frills, rock record that will no doubt satisfy fans hungry for some head-banging riffs and sing-along choruses. Combining the sleaziness of Aerosmith with some punk-ish attitude, the band delivers a great rock record with some youthful energy" Rating 8/10

    Sleazeroxx.com: "Bringing the fun and swagger back to rock n’ roll — that is what I think of when I listen to Dirtbag Republic‘s self-titled debut album. Dirtbag Republic starts off fast and strong, and simply never lets up. If you like the first track “Can You Feel It” — and what is not to like about a sleazy rocker with a big guitar sound and Hanoi Rocks like swagger — odds are you’re going to like every track on the album because every track is similar in terms of being a straight forward sleazy dirty rocker. In other words, if you like one song on Dirtbag Republic, you’ll like them all!"

    "If you like sleaze type rock, picking up Dirtbag Republic‘s debut album is a no brainer — end of story"

lyrics

Little Boys In Blue
Jones/Cook

I'm just a honky peck little piggy boy

Little boys in blue, they got a job to do
In a uniform, They tell you what to do

They help old ladies across the street
Direct the traffic on the street
It's just a job like yours and mine
But you’re always working overtime
You could join anytime
Just as long as you tow the line
And you're up to six feet tall
And you look a fucking fool, Oh

And when they’re walking on the beat
I’d like to know what they all think

There’s a sod out in the cold
Come on, let’s go and give him a bull
We’ll take him down to bleeding yard
We’ll find out if he’s fucking on
Special patrol, license to kill
Little town, they’ll beat you well
They don’t care who they blame
All they bother’s who they name, excuse me

Little boys like you (x7)
