    Artist description
    The inevitable effects of hardcore narcotics upon the fragile fatalistic psyches of native appalachians. We are but victims of the release from ourselves. Sexy.
    Music Style
    Hasil Atkins fell down the well. He hit his head. He met John Ritter and they had hot man-on-man love in the back of an RV on a Indian reservation in southeast Arizona. Hasil would't stop talking about Kentucky and John screamed Hank Williams songs to the top of his lungs while fiercely beating his genitals with Hopi art-objects. These are songs inspired by the meaty thwacking sounds of those genital beatings: Spastic country funk folk polka.

    Artist History
    No one ever liked us or allowed us to play in public. "Oh, they're strung out again". We gathered round the 4 track with our instruments and our habits. Here ya go.
    Group Members
    Tom, the elder of our members, once schooled in the mystical arts of the electric fiddle, traveled the world teaching his art to bad country musicians and quirky Sweedish heavy metal bands what wanted to learn this impressive style. Jacob, the one what plays the bass, is a constant and reliable source of illegal and quasi-legal drugs. John, the one what bangs pots and such down the hallway and in the cellar (we don't call him 'reverb john' for nothin). Eugene does the sangin when there's sangin to be done. He's not too good. Diego, musical mexican: our own flute playing, sangin wet back.
