The Barnyard Playboys - Corn Dog Love (Rubric)
Shitkickin' music with a shiteatin' grin, this is rude, obnoxious, hilarious, drunken, fratboy nonsense and I love it to death. Imagine Mojo Nixon leading Southern Culture on the Skids, or an X-rated Five Chinese Brothers at a backyard barbecue singalong and you're on the right track. With titles like "Corn Dog Love," "Turd in the Mail," "Hi You're Dead," "Whiskey Dick Mountain" and the ever-popular crowd pleaser, "My Heart Is In The Right Place (But My Head Is Up My Ass)," this is not the kind of shit you listen to with the parents in the next room, but with a couple of buckets of fried chicken and a couple of cubes of Bud.
"Last Round" is countrified Stones a la "Sweet Virginia" and masquerading behind all the stale beer farts and cold chicken breath are some John Prine-quality melodies from a party band that's as tight as a monkey's bum! Another highlight worth mentioning is "Alligator Song," which sounds like Charlie Daniels driving the devil down to Georgia in Commander Cody's "Hot Rod Lincoln."
There's not much left to say. Just grab some brews, some broads, and some birds and dive right in. This is a finger-lickin' toga party waiting to happen. Just remember to put some helmets on those soldiers, boys!
