Robert Christgau A-

Root Hog or Die is the fifth album by the rock and psychobilly musical artists Mojo Nixon and Skid Roper, released in 1989.

All songs written by Nixon and published by Tallywacker Tunes/La Rana Music except as indicated.

The music critic Robert Christgau, who had previously criticized the alleged misogyny of Nixon's song "Stuffin' Martha's Muffin'", gave Root Hog or Die an A-, calling it "Nixon's finest artistic achievement". However, he was unimpressed with Roper's cuts, calling them "the usual yawn" and commenting that "Mojo's loyalty to his partner, who has-his-own-album-out God-help-us, is one reason I think he's got a good heart."
