Description
Behold… A river of Booze-soaked Ballads, suicidal Anthems and Apocalyptic Slaloms. This Sulphuric collection of withered Nashville legends and battered backwoods-poets features tales of Mournful Desolation, craven Lustmords, delirious Gospel Redemptions and Philosophical Arborist-isms. Often originally waxed and distributed in minuscule amounts, these Troubled Troubadours sing of Drunken Infanticide, Suffocating Conformity, Tortured Inebriates and the all-too easy escape of The Grave. Years in the making – ‘Hillbillies In Hell’ (Volume XI) presents 16 timeless tribulations – Vengeful Vigilantism, grisly Rodent Infestations, helpless Automobile Assassinations, breathless Hayseed Cosmologies and blazing faux-Sitar Ditties. A daemonic stash of forgotten 45s – some of these sides are impossibly rare and are reissued here for the very first time. All for your tawdry listening pleasure. “SEE Anita Carter lament ALL MY TRIALS! “HEAR Dick Curless mourn BURY THE BOTTLE WITH ME! “WITNESS Loy Clingman declare I’M LOW, LOW, LOW! “Limited Edition Deluxe Gatefold LP with exclusive scholarly liner notes by Alvin Lucia! “Full dynamic range 2020 remasters direct from the first-generation analogue master tapes! *Limited Edition 666 copies! 222 ‘Samhain Orange’ vinyl / 222 ‘Tartarus Torment’ splatter vinyl / 222 ‘Watery Grave’ black vinyl!
