Dash Rip Rock has released 15 records that have been hailed as country punk classics. In the eighties the band was signed to Mammoth Records. In the nineties they scored a national modern rock radio hit with "Let's Go Smoke Some Pot." In recent years, the band joined forces with Jello Biafra's Alternative Tentacles label to release Hee Haw Hell (2004), the world's first country punk rock opera. In 2010 Dash Rip Rock followed it up with Call of the Wild-- a soulsy, blistering concept album that both extols and critiques that most unique of institutions, the Southern party. No Depression says Call of the Wild proves Dash Rip Rock is "one of the greatest bands working today."
