"Those Poor Bastards Are the best Gothic Country I have heard yet to this day. The depressing gloomy vocals coming out of this drifter named Lonesome Wyatt has hints of Marilyn Manson to Nick Cave, Throwrag and maybe even a hint of a demented Adam Ant with a shot of a Pilled Up Johnny Cash... And the Minister is backing up Lonesome Wyatt with a style that is a cross between erie strung out folk music with a creepy blend of The Nightmare Before Christmas!!!!!!!!!" -Hank Williams III
Those Poor Bastards play miserable and primitive old-time gothic country music. Lonesome Wyatt (guitar, vocals) and The Minister (banjo, bass, etc) are both legally certified holiness preachers. If you're looking for slick, overproduced, commercial songs, you'd better cover your delicate little ears. Those Poor Bastards play it raw and they play it mean. Be a pal and support independent anti corporate country music.

Are your miserable souls ready for judgment? Any day now we should be expecting a firework show from N.Korea... And I would venture to say that if we weren't so worried about Michael Jackson we probably could do something about it, but lets get a 8th autopsy on him first.... :-..
Dear Lonesome, I am fixin' to head out to the Hank III show in Raleigh, and I can't help but wish ya'll were still traveling with him. Someone called Lucky Tub is opening...Anyhoo...happy 4th and all that jazz.
Keep those fingers away from firecrackers, now. (and stay away from the forest)
