"It's important to mention that Heavy Load Blues isn't restricted to these thirteen songs. It also will be released in a Deluxe Edition which includes eight more songs. That's another tradition by Gov't Mule, never "saving" songs, but doing exactly the opposite, satisfying their fan base with a lot of tracks on each album. Along their almost 30 years on the road, Gov't Mule remains as a jam-rock band that honors all their influences. But their essence, the rock soul, is always there, either playing reggae or a blues tune".

"More times than not, bonus material can be done without, as it doesn't add much to the experience. However, on Heavy Load Blues, it's essential and deepens the experience, proving that Gov't Mule is at their best when they plug in, reach back to their roots, and dig deep into their soul".

"Since releasing their self-titled debut album in 1995, Gov't Mule have remained close to their trademark bluesy hard rock roots. While they cover classic blues tunes regularly, they apply that musical signature. Heavy Load Blues marks the first time the quartet have recorded an album devoted strictly to blues ... Heavy Load Blues is raw, heavy, and immediate, the sound of a band unfettered while pursuing a deep blue groove that never quits".
