My dad was a bluegrass musician he played the banjo and guitar mostly the banjo and I haven't been able to listen to bluegrass music since he passed away but this I love it doesn't bring me to tears when I try to listen to it.

[@AppalachianAnarchy]

Thank you for sharing that. I'm so sorry about your father's passing - and I'm glad to know we can play a small roll in your healing process. Be well!

[@AppalachianAnarchy]

Also, your dad sounds like he was a pretty awesome guy

[@spookhouse2764]

Music can have such a. Profound impact on one's life but I'd like to think your dad's up in heaven jamming out with you whenever you listen to these guys 😊

[@dottiethompson9983]

Thank you , I hope

[@patriciabaldwin3976]

I understand that I'm finding I can't listen to music I associate with memories of my younger years unless it's up dated to metal

Hey Gaijin, just letting you know YOU sent me here with your Speed Freeks stream. THANK YOU

[@AppalachianAnarchy]

Hello Everyone, Thanks for tuning into Appalachian Anarchy! We appreciate all the feedback and love, but I want to address a few comments labeling our music as AI-generated. I'm the songwriter behind our tunes, very much human, and here to share our story. Appalachian Anarchy began as a recording project. When "Banjo Bloodbath" took off unexpectedly, we sped up releasing our music, which has been both thrilling and chaotic. Our goal shifted from a slow release to sharing our entire album, crafted over nine months, as quickly as possible due to your overwhelming support. Not all of us are keen on being internet personalities; our focus is the music. In the digital age, where fame is often sought after, it’s hard to believe, but some of us prefer staying out of the spotlight. For full transparency, I use a MIDI guitar for complex sections and other instruments whenever possible. As a classically trained guitarist who plays multiple instruments, I strive to capture the sounds in our heads, sometimes at odd hours next to a sleeping baby’s room, using both traditional and digital means. This mix allows us to create without the resources of a professional studio. We dream of doing this full-time someday, but for now, we balance our music with jobs and families. Thank you for being part of our journey, and I hope this clarifies our approach. We’d love to hear your thoughts and hope you continue enjoying our music! Cheers, Appalachian Anarchy

Any plans of a physical release? Wouldn't mind having a blood red clear vinyl of this! 😜

[@ゆる太ニキ]

とてもクールだ！ It's so coooooooool!!

[@SuperHothead14]

It Might possibly be cause of the artwork? If it’s ai it mightve labeled the whole thing as ai generated. It doesnt look it. But the flags for those things are weird

[@mandownunder5211]

Are the thumbnails AI generated? That would lead people to suspect the songs are as well.

[@JackieTheCatfox]

I don't believe the music was AI generated (I detected MIDI use, for sure, but to me, it sounds like human beings played most of the music and programmed the rest). However, if the album artwork looks AI generated, that could lead people to believe the music was too. I say this because a friend of mine (a musician as well as a visual artist) told me: "This sounds really cool, it's a shame the artist relies on AI for the cover art". I can't say for sure if the artwork is AI generated or not (it didn't look like that to me at first), but if it was, I'd consider commissioning an artist to design and create your album covers in the future (do keep the horror-themed vibe, though, that's supremely cool). In the current climate, many artists and enjoyers of art have a very strong negative reaction towards generative AI (myself included). It would be a shame if people chose to pass on this awesome music because the AI generated artwork turned them off.

This is the epitome of “movie bar fight” music. I need to see one of these songs in a movie asap

[@AppalachianAnarchy]

hahaha, a movie using our music would be incredible! so... we're in talks now with a small tire sales shop in Texas that wants to use one of our songs in a commercial. Not AS cool as a movie... but gotta start somewhere! prolly not a bar-fight scene though, in the tire commercial - so that's a bummer

[@oglightexcalibur]

I’m really looking into making movies, especially some epic action scenes, and I adore this music and would really wanna use this at some point

The year is 1936, Jellico Mountain, Tennessee. You’ve gotta run your moonshine down across the state line to Williamsburg, Kentucky. You know that the Tennessee and Kentucky State Troopers and the county sheriffs from both states will be on you in both directions. You are going to have to push your 1934 Ford Coupe to the limit.

Was just letting yt music run while driving. Didn't sleep well last night, feeling kind of gloomy and depressed. This song comes up while parked and I give it a like before 30 seconds are up because something this unexpected creative reminds me the world has wonderful surprises that I can't even imagine and I get back a bit of that light my heart needs. I'm going to play this song when I put my D&D party through a swamp battle.

[@mintytrash7240]

Sweet god this track slaps!! Instead of cover picture, so much positive energy!! Sending you guys love from Russia 🇷🇺

[@VEXG32]

My wife found this. Now I want to learn the banjo for reasons lmao

[@BlamingBlaze]

So i searched up songs that include Banjos and i think i found a new genre of music that I'll be listening to for hours.

[@Bonzai0311]

Smok'in! I love alternate styles of music. The banjo and the drums just cook's so much better than you'd think it should.

[@johnghiglione2641]

I just discovered you guys last night with your song Kryptkeeper's Clawhammer when it popped up in my KZbin feed. Then tonight, I saw on another one of your guys' songs pop up again, and I have been listening to you guy's non-stop. You guys are awesome and a really different sounding type of Metal Music. I really enjoy your guys music. I will definitely be listening to you guys a lot. Someday I hope too see you guys live.

[@longtailsally]

I’m thankful that my KZbin recommended this song to me by chance one day. You guys are amazing!! Keep up the great work!

[@amberhernandez]

I can't help but imagine this in a Western Bloodborne-like game where you can get invaded by other players. It's just a small few ideas in my head, but the scenario I keep thinking of: [Invader side] - Fire a Blood-red Bullet? (You will invade another Sheriff's town as a Desperado) - Yes - Invading another world... - Invaded world of [Player Name]. Shoot the sheriff, Desperado! [Sheriff's side] - A Blood-red Bullet sounds in the distance. - Desperado [Player Name] is here to raise hell. Get 'em, Sheriff! - Objective name: "This Town Ain't Big Enough" (Banjo Bloodbath starts playing) Again, it's just a concept in my head, but godDAMN would this track slam in that kind of scene!

[@AppalachianAnarchy]

Thanks! Rock on with your Banjo, too! We've been talking about getting some CDs printed soon, just getting the funds together. Records are apparently pretty expensive to print... which, I expected to a certain extent, but wow! Small runs are insanely pricey. So probably won't print those anytime too soon. Good luck on banjo, its a killer instrument!
