3 Bar Ranch

Fathom if you will, an unholy alliance between death metal, cowpunk, grindcore and thrash, all spewed singlehandedly by Hank III with dizzying sprays of cattle auctioneering overtop. Yeah, you're reading that correctly. Jettisoned from the inexplicably rapid mouths of actual cattle callers such as Tim Dowler, Joe Coggins, Hugh and Gwynn Howell, Mitch Jordan and others, you won't believe it at face value until you put this madcap son of a gun into your player.

Fathom if you will, an unholy alliance between death metal, cowpunk, grindcore and thrash, all spewed singlehandedly by Hank III with dizzying sprays of cattle auctioneering overtop. Yeah, you're reading that correctly. Jettisoned from the inexplicably rapid mouths of actual cattle callers such as Tim Dowler, Joe Coggins, Hugh and Gwynn Howell, Mitch Jordan and others, you won't believe it at face value until you put this madcap son of a gun into your player. Hank III chugs, twists, sears and propels insane crunch chords, gnashing guitar solos and ratchety drum smacking below the inhuman nattering of his dubbed auctioneer tracks. Cattle Callin' speeds and it huffs and it is a maniacal trip into an Arkansas hellhole where Hank III eventually twines in some filtered electro vocals--think Gibby Haynes--which pummel the snot out of the listener. Sometimes he pelts his audience with self-contained minute-plus blasts. Sometimes Hank III whirls up 10 minute marathons. For awhile, anyway, you'll be roaring along. If you think Gibby Haynes scatting all over Ministry's "Jesus Built My Hotrod" is a trip, it's a mere jaunt to the chicken shack by comparison to 3 Bar Ranch. Read more on Last.fm.
