Don't Worry Lady is the second and final full-length album by the hardcore/thrash band I Hate Sally. The album was released in 2006. Shortly after this, I Hate Sally was signed to Vagrant Records and the album was re-released for the US and UK in 2007 on the band's second label.[1]

Lyrical themes

Song titles on the album contain many references to female Biblical characters, though frontwoman Dee Prescott has stated that the album does not have an overtly feminine tone.[2] The album's title is derived from a sound clip between track three and four of a man stating "Don't worry lady, everything is going to be alright now." It is taken from an after school special with a police officer saying the line, a sound clip that I Hate Sally used in live shows before the release of Don't Worry Lady.[2]

Critical reception

The album had average reviews, with the drumming[3] and guitar riffs being praised in particular.[4] A recurring issue with reviewers was the mix of genres employed by the band.[3][5]
