Review:
God do I love this dude. He went from being in a metal band (Superjoint Ritual) to picking up where his grandpappy left off. Hank Sr. is smiling down from heaven on his kin, waiting for him to join him for a bottle of jack when his time comes. I have been a huge fan of Hank Sr. for some time and when I found out Hank 3 sounds and looks like him, I was excited. Hank Jr. ruined himself with bad songs and that stupid monday night football song. It's hard to take him seriously, but the 3rd is deadly serious.
He puts the dick back in dixie, thats for damn sure. He takes you back to a time when barfights were a nightly occurance, when whiskey flowed like candy, and when country relected the listener, instead of the way it is now. Most new country makes me want to vomit on myself, save perhaps Neko Case.
"I been beat up I been kicked around I been thrown out of every bar in this dang town".... me and the guys I work with sing this on the jobsite al the time. It's pretty much my life. He has his faster songs, slow and depressing ones, and just basically keeps it origional throughout. The Johnny Cash and hank Sr. influence is undeniable. His guitarwork is fucking amazing, putting most new artists to shame. He takes classic country pickin to whole new levels in such songs as "Smoke and Wine" and "Pills I Took".
So hail! the savior of country. Embrace this dude, he is fucking great. Fuck all the other new crappy country, this is the real shit. Makes me wanna go muddin while drinkin and smoking huge blunts. I would give my left arm to hang with this dude, we'd end up in jail or dead.
