  1. 9.1 |   A.V. Club

    Mosshart especially relishes the chance to stretch her talents
    Read Review

  2. 8.3 |   Consequence Of Sound

    A fine microcosm of an album — and a band — that refuses to settle
    Read Review

  3. 8.0 |   Q

    This is probably his best guitar album since The White Stripes; not bad for a drummer. Print edition only

  4. 8.0 |   Clash

    A sassy ball of madness coming at your ears at 120mph

  5. 8.0 |   Spin

    One of their greatest

  6. 8.0 |   The FT

    Despite the ex-White Stripes frontman’s dominant personality the project is more than the sum of his parts
    Read Review

  7. 8.0 |   The Observer

    Impossible Winner closes the album with a totally unexpected Mosshart piano ballad that would not sound amiss on a James Bond soundtrack
    Read Review

  8. 8.0 |   Uncut

    This is one record that demands to be taken onstage and propelled into oblivion
    Read Review

  9. 8.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    Mosshart really makes the album her own and consigns White to the shadows. As for The Dead Weather being a side-project? This has more potential than any of White’s solo work and should be given everyone’s full attention

  10. 7.5 |   Beardfood

    Dark and heavy stuff once again

  11. 7.3 |   Paste Magazine

    The element that keeps the band from coming off as completely robotic-sounding is frontwoman Alison Mosshart. She is a marvel on this new album
    Read Review

  12. 7.3 |   Pitchfork

    The band’s theatricality mostly complements the agitated tone of the songs and the dubby, dread-of-night ambiance of White’s production

  13. 7.0 |   Rolling Stone

    A blazing set by a band that really ought to record more often
    Read Review

  14. 7.0 |   The Music

    The main weapon here is Alison Mosshart's sheer presence
    Read Review

  15. 7.0 |   Gig Soup

    ‘Dodge and Burn’ may not appeal to all members of the Jack White fan club, but it benefits greatly from a musical chemistry

  16. 6.5 |   Earbuddy

    You can dodge this one and not miss much

  17. 6.0 |   The 405

    There is clear, if fleeting, evidence on Dodge and Burn that The Dead Weather are gradually moving towards a record on which they'll be able to exploit everybody's ability to their collective advantage
    Read Review

  18. 6.0 |   Under The Radar

    On Dodge and Burn, the static electricity that crackles between Mosshart and White is still enough to send sparks flying
    Read Review

  19. 6.0 |   NME

    A band working from muscle memory
    Read Review

  20. 6.0 |   Mojo

    At the very least a solid offering. Print edition only

  21. 6.0 |   musicOMH

    A solid effort and possibly The Dead Weather’s most cohesive record to date
    Read Review

  22. 6.0 |   Evening Standard

    At times it feels as if a menacing vibe is valued more greatly than writing memorable songs
    Read Review

  23. 4.0 |   Spectrum Culture

    In order to attempt to enjoy most Dead Weather songs one is forced to basically ignore Mossheart
