Two thumbs way up for me. Those twangy surf-style guitars capture their cowpunk sound perfectly. How about you Sludgers?

Down. Never got the love for this band. Cowboy metal is embarrassing when Ronnie Lee Keel does it, but cool if it's a bunch of Danes?

Apart from the twangy guitar tone on this and Point of View, what at all was cowboy about them by the time they released NFLFTP? Nothing.

two thumbs up! Yay DAD!

Never really understood why this song became their "hit". it's pretty good, but the rest of the album is all kinds of awesome. Girl Nation, Wild Talk, Rim of Hell, Jihad, Point of View are all better.

Still give it thumbs up

Way down. Average song, and a third thumb down for Stig's stupid gimmicky bass shtick.

That entire album, No Fuel Left For the Pilgrims, is really good, as is the follow-up, Riskin’ It All.

Not sure if I’ve ever heard them. I just know Huey loves them. They’re foreign. They had little to no success here. They play cowboy metal like Ronnie Lee Keel.

I don't know. Listen to Monster Philosophy or Everything Glows. Not much cowboy metal to me. :D
