Not too shabby, but then again I'm a neck at heart and like my music twangy with some steel guitar and walking bass. If I remeber correctly, you are into Hank III and the vacals kind of remind me a little of that nasal sound. I'm sure most these peeps around here are into heavy stuff so they might not care for it, but otherwise it sounds pretty good. Congrats of the epic release.

Thanks for the feedback. I know country isn't everyone's cup of tea. Funny you say that about the vocals. If there's one thing that bothers me about Rodd's vocals, it's that they aren't twangy or "country" enough. He used to sing in a rockabilly band, and sometimes his vox get a little too rockabilly for me, at least in terms of what we're trying to do. He's still a better singer than the rest of us though.

Our guitarist Ben actually just bought a really cool 3-neck steel guitar. We have a chunk of about 6 or 7 steel songs in the middle of our set. As far as I know, he's the only guitarist in town (under age 60 at least) who plays steel in a band.

Very nice. Made me want to grab my cowboy hat and head out to a raunchy saloon. Singers voice is fine. Stretching to reach a "twangier voice" would rob the uniqueness of your sound. My first impressions-- not a far jump from John Prine.
Fuck the ACLU. It will always be Merry Christmas to me.

Kinda sounds like you guys were trying to be Social Distortion but got lost in Southern Oklahoma / Northern Texas along the way.

I like it.
