These HICKS belch out their country roots, and though only on one track (a cover of “Take it Easy”) do they hit it punk style musically, they manage to mangle the genre lyrically on all four cuts. For cowpunks.
Living up to their true potential, the HICKOIDS blaze a true path between the mud-caked rodeo music of the South and the craziness of cousins marrying. There’s a true strangeness here that rivals the best of early MEAT PUPPETS, and like the MP’s, they can smoke on their instruments. Besides, how many bands really look good with cowshit on their boots?
