Hank III is pretty awesome according to me and Stephen King

“I no longer drink, but I love songs about boozing, and these are beauts. The Hank III album is called Straight to Hell, and I imagine the Nashville establishment wishes young Mr. Williams would go there, posthaste. Me, I hope he sticks around. This is the real country: hollow of eye, pale of face, and bursting with the rhythm of the damned.”

-Stephen King, novelist, screenwriter, columnist

Check him out yourself:

He’s only got one upcoming tour date. May 13th in N’awlins, Louisiana. Tickets at ticketmaster.

CORRECTION, THEY ARE NOT TOURING AT THE MOMENT.  HERE’S HIS HOMEPAGE EXPLAINING THAT.

I like the fact that he’s like Phil Anselmo. He loves a mosh pit, but he schools the young uns. You’re not supposed to fucking stomp people, that’s bullshit. You tear it up. Someone falls down, you help them back up. He in fact does it twice in this awesome show. He flat out stopped the song so that everyone would help him back up.

Seems to me like his father taught him the partying, fighting and fucking shit right. And he didn’t leave out the fact that caring for people ain’t pussy.

He also plays Heavy Metal and Punk stuff, I just can’t find any on youtube.
