If Pantera and Slayer (both namechecked here) formed an acoustic band with Black Label Society it would sound like this.
If that was the “awww-shucks-mamas-Apple-pie” side of Middle America, then “Welcome To Yeehaw County” is the kids who were giving Huck the middle finger while drunk, stoned and in the Meth Lab in the desert.
WHISKEY DICK BAND TV
Readers of a certain age will remember the adaptation of Huckleberry Finn which used to be on TV in the school holidays. Potty mouthed and disgusting, yes, but marvellous all the same. What this collection also shows is that Whiskeydick are marvellous. “I ain’t gonna be here long,” it offers “I’m a drinkin’ smokin’ gun totin rebel son.” The band know what they are: they tell you as much on “Gun Totin’ Rebel Son” which explains that their “lungs are filled with smoke and THC” and further offers this cheery thought. So, if you’re curious about what the guys are up to-from dickin’ around Europe to piddlin’ around Pondstock-then be sure to check back in regularly. Once a month you’ll be updated on all things marvelous and mundane in the DICK world. On the flip side of that you’ve got “Murder Love Song” which takes GnR’s “Used To Love Her” and decides it wasn’t violent enough. Welcome to the brand-spankin-new WHISKEYDICK website One of the fabulous features is this here blog space. “Help” manages to sound so much like Pride And Glory that you might want to get that record out for the first time in years, and “Fallen Heroes” is a piece of genuine tenderness worthy of Skynyrd. Whiskeydick are not some godawful hillbilly Steel Panther, though, and can actually write some fine songs. “Yeehaw” is better still and carries some genuine menace.
They do it themselves on “Train Robbin’ Gun Toting Good Time Band” which is actually a lot cleverer than it sounds, given that it is Grand Funk Railroad’s “We’re An American Band” rewritten. The band don’t seem to care if you pigeonhole them as Rednecks. On the evidence of the tracks here, other things they enjoy include fighting, totin’ pistols, smoking weed and generally being anti-social.
WHISKEY DICK BAND FULL
Their “Drunk As Hell” video has racked up millions of hits on YouTube, and they are given the full on Best Of collection treatment here.Īs the name might indicate, Whiskeydick like drinking. Whiskeydick are arguably the biggest band you’ve never heard of. You can use it to change the world like Bob Dylan or Johnny Cash, you can use it to write a love song, or you can use it for something else entirely. Eli Young Band: Whiskey Dicks: El Paso, Texas, United States: Eli Young Band: Whiskey Dicks: El Paso, Texas, United States: 'Jokes On You Comedy Tour' / Gallagher / Artie Fletcher.
The acoustic guitar, it has to be said, is rather more versatile than you might think. Hillbilly rock n roll? You’ll be eating grits on the front porch after this
