Soul City - Southern Culture on the Skids

Soul City - Southern Culture on the Skids
2:36
Dirt Track Date, 1995
Written by Rick Miller

This is country surf rock with a twang and a "if we think it’s fun we'll do it" attitude.  These guys are the musical grandsons of Jimmy Buffett, raised on punk and country. They blend solid musicianship with knowing winks and goofiness, the vocals half-shouted with plenty of distortion, as if through a bullhorn.  It's funky, catchy, and funny, and evokes a delightedly, defiantly proletarian party vibe.  "It don’t matter if your pants are shiny / If your dick is big or your dick is tiny.” Come on, who wouldn’t love that?  Well, some people, but this isn't for them.
