Description
It's an old story: recovering punk or metalhead discovers a Hank Williams record, buys a pawn shop acoustic guitar and turns out modernized country with a punk rock sensibility. Hank III, grandson of Hank Williams Sr. and son of Hank Williams Jr., didn't have to go far to unearth his deep country roots, though he long resisted them, serving in punk bands for most of the '80s and '90s. Since embracing the family business, Hank III has divided his output between trad country and metallic psychobilly, both sides sharing only his uncompromising voice and blunt, smart-ass take on the world.
