Hank Williams III's new record "Straight to Hell" came out today.  His first two were badass hopefully this one is just as good.

Cheers

Maybe he's holding the gun sideways to poke fun at gangstas?  

I hope that's what he's doing.

He put the Dick Back in Dixie and the Cunt back in Country!




Ass Jack Rocks!!!

Edit to add: I love it when the people that came to the show early stay for the third set and the mosh pit breaks out! They have no Idea what is going on if it is their first show!  He does need to retire grandpa's boots though and eat a biscuit!

What ever happened to the good country, like "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" and "Fightin' Side of Me?" When I am world dictator, women will be banned from singing country music. Backup singers only. They are no Patsy Cline, so they should save it. Just my .02.

ooookkkkk.... have you heard Hank 3 or are you going by what he looks like with his cowboy hat off? Would you prefer if his shirt was starched and he looked like Garth Brooks? Which one of his songs in your opinion makes him sound like a poser : Whiskey, Weed, & Women , Dick In Dixie, One Horse Town? He sounds and looks IMO exactly like his "grand pappy". I have seen him first hand at many shows and he is NOT a poser. BTW he was requested By Johnny Cash to play Wreck of the Old '97 on Dressed in Black - A Tribute to Johnny Cash. I guess Johnny thought he sucked ass so much and thought he was such a poser he let him play one of his songs, TRACK 1 I might add ,on his Tribute Album.

Here is a sample of the Track Wreck of the Old '97 - Hank III

EDIT for spelling

Hank III was exactly who I was thinking of when I read this thread title.  He really does return country to its roots of drinkin', fightin', whorin', drinkin', hard times, and drinkin'.  No "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy" or "Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy" bullshit.  

I do find it amusing how his most often referenced gun is his 'Magnum Forty-Four', yet that appears to be a .38/.357 snubby he's hold sideways in that pic.

True, but Johnny Cash was country before shitasses like Big and Rich, Cowboy Trpy, and even Toby (Coonta) Keith came along.

Funny.  Whoever is talking shit either doesn't know real country or has never heard any 3.  If you had heard any of his MUSIC you would know the skinny.  Better yet, go to a show.

Funny, I was thinking the exact thing when it comes to Willie.

He so god damned annoys me.  He thinks I give two shits about him and his political ideology.  Just fucking sing you old coot!
