Product Details

The Sadies arrived from Toronto carrying a cratedigger's obsession with American vernacular music, and Pure Diamond Gold was an early showcase of just how deep that knowledge ran. Twenty tracks across surf, bluegrass, gospel, and spaghetti western noir, delivered by brothers Dallas and Travis Good with the kind of instrumental fluency that comes from genuine devotion, not novelty-seeking. Bloodshot Records was the perfect home for it.

Only the choicest cuts of surf, bluegrass, spaghetti western spookiness, garage punk, country murder ballads, and gospel from Toronto's genre-defying instrumental masters The Sadies. "Their dusty frontier soundtracks to westerns never made are as evocative as ever, but they're actually quite revved up placed next to the surf and jailhouse rock of guitarist Dallas Good." - EXCLAIM
