This is what I would blast if I was makin' moonshine in the mountains and shit.

[@tbalciunas333]

You and me both

[@Sqidd-ff5mg]

Hahaha I must be living the dream because that is what I was doing just today. Lol I live in the Ozarks.

[@simonbedan139]

But ur blasting your shitty techno instead....

[@madjack821]

But we don’t make shine....do we....?

[@diamondstaterecordchaser8286]

Good way to get revenuers and the atf on your ass on you bud

[@onedavewreckingcrew]

If Primus, Anthrax, and the state of Kentucky had a baby, this would be its cousin.

[@FictitiousCtrlGames]

It's uncle-cousin. xD

[@PepperDarlington]

Nephson

[@patmalloy3569]

I live in Kentucky sir....lol

[@Top10Dylan]

This is a bit more Metallica than anthrax.

[@tylertriplett308]

As a native Kentuckian, I can indeed confirm the this is the product of brouncle-dading. And it is good

[@rivalmindss]

d-do i square dance or circle pit? Edit: it’s been 4 years since this comment and the Native Howl just liked it SMDH 😂😂😂

[@krisdaschwab912]

Jack Nunley Why not do a circle dance or a square pit?

[@travisriddle6491]

krisdaschwab912 or square circle or dance pit lol

[@radakinryder2741]

just violently square dance in a circle

[@79thinline]

Jack Nunley yes the answer is just yes

[@antcow1239]

But don't rectangle

[@teresamcmurrin8672]

I'm a metalhead that was raised on Country & Bluegrass. One day, while bopping around YT exploring the many shades of Metal, wondered, "is Bluegrass Metal a thing?". Typed it into the Search, & wound up here. Tell ya, I'm in hog heaven! 😊

[@mykee426]

I did the same. These guys need to keep the greatness comin 😎

[@OriginalKingRichTv]

Thrash metalheads like us think alike🤘🏾

[@makeshift_graveyard7893]

i literally typed in “metal bluegrass” and this video came up

[@MrJeanBombers]

@@makeshift_graveyard7893 same here! Everything exists on KZbin haha.

[@pudermcgavin4462]

Welcome! Still metal head but blue grass is a winner and it's awesome!

[@SallyDrumz]

this is the most american thing I've ever witnessed.

[@dropkickpennyday9576]

SallyDrumz You misspelled "MURICAN"

[@satanbringeroflight3075]

SallyDrumz that's the greatest shit holly crap

[@hannahhyatt1232]

SallyDrumz omg lolol

[@benduran3907]

SallyDrumz then you ain't heard Merica by Granger Smith

[@oscarberlanga4418]

Very American

[@trjb1767]

Echo of motorhead. Lemmy would have liked this

[@mantistoboggan2599]

This, is the country sound Johnny Cash would’ve been proud of

[@flatheadwarrior]

Bro... This had solos, there was head banging, there was instrument smashing, guns, grim reaper, a banjo. This is my favorite thing ever

[@dragonlea13979]

Hahahahaa!!!! 😂😂😂😂

[@427CobraMotors]

This is that new shit we all have been needing!

[@michaeljones3878]

Cobra Motors infuckingdeed!!!!

[@comettamer]

Cobra Motors True, very

[@alexholycross9524]

Hell yes, glad you're diggin' it! Thank you!

[@joefromravenna]

Hell yeah! Devil leaves Georgia and goes to explore Kentucky.

[@twilightcitystudios]

Alternate Title - Metal music on grandpa's guitars.

[@laurawallace1346]

Lmao! Grandpa guitars! Someone call mash potato Johnson

[@JASSONIDRUMWORKS]

I just saw you guys on No Cover. And I will say I am highly impressed. It's fun, thrashy and you guys are talented. Love it.

[@TheNativeHowl]

Thank you

[@TheCarolinaNick]

That's hilarious

[@DaddyWarbucksunlimited]

We love ya all in PA mtns.

[@DaddyWarbucksunlimited]

Has a bit of canned heat vocally

[@TheFoggyHollows]

Stylistically, it's very bluegrass AND very thrash. Badass. Harmonies are gold. Banjo and Bass player kill it.

[@robertwalmsley1]

The vocalist is just a bear of a man 😂 who thought of combining the two types of music is genius we need more experiments in music :D

[@TheNativeHowl]

Haha thanks man! Many more experiments to come on the new record... Stay tuned!

[@xavierguitars]

Just found a new style of "country" that doesn't make me wanna puke. I thoroughly enjoyed this very much. Fuckin' loved it.

[@theblastingcommunity]

This is fucking EPIC!!! I DJ in country bars and I hate slow ass country, but this shit just made it awesome. You guys will be played every friday night!!!!!!

[@jeremygabel1985]

Just watched them in concert, they are even better live.

[@TheNativeHowl]

Hey Jeremy, thanks a lot for that. That's always our goal so good to know it's shining through. Which show were you at?

[@jeremygabel1985]

The Native Howl Dubuque, can’t wait for the next tour, I’ll travel even if you’re in the surrounding area.

[@TheNativeHowl]

We really appreciate that. We've played Iowa quite a fair amount now, so I'm sure we'll be back pretty soon!

[@icemike874]

True That! My guy with the bass solo...Dayum 🤘🔥

[@stevenmcc2119]

Badass I’m seeing them with corrosion of conformity tomorrow night

[@skyportalmusic7178]

Jesus Loves You

[@SwerlinMerlin]

These boys are CRIMINALLY underrated!!

[@TheNativeHowl]

🤘🔨🖤🪕🇺🇸

[@TylerEveritt]

Just saw them on New Year's Eve and they opened this song with the intro from Metallica's "Battery". These guys are so fucking awesome. Super nice dudes too. Just all around great artists. 2017 is going to be huge for them.

[@takura13]

I like the one part, where the guys plays the instrument

[@blackdog5186]

takura13 that's the best part

[@oscarberlanga4418]

I know right

[@Sqidd-ff5mg]

Don't like the truth huh. Keep running and hide like the song says. Just keep running all your life.

[@kurtsandstrom5716]

instruments are cool. it takes too much work to find the right rocks & washtubs for this.

[@PirateJohnson]

The drums we're WAY too low.

[@luck6988]

this is fucking bad ass honestly

[@kellysong2256]

I want to express my gratitude to the KZbin algorithm for helping me discover this kick-ass band!! 😮 Their song "Mercy" with Lzzy Hale is just transformative...it sends me into ecstasies

[@spencermeunier3298]

this is one of the most kick ass things I've ever seen. coming from some who likes rap, techno, country, all the way up to death metal and grindcore, this is awesome. showed it to my friend who hates a lot of music, super picky, but likes folk and bluegrass and he said he was surprised at how good this is.

[@MetalFerg]

Haha super "picky"

[@Kelsie154]

I've always said thrash/speed metal and Bluegrass had a lot of similarities. Especially in their intensity and speed, and the fact that they blend so well, proves me right. Damn, that was awesome! Though, now I'm confused as to whether I should add you guys to my Bluegrass or metal playlist. 😂😂😂

[@JohnSmith-vh2fr]

Why not both? some that are more metal go metal and ones that are more grassy go to bluegrass

[@MkadinA01]

Kelsie LeCrone wow such an original thought you totally have always said that

[@IC3R3AP3R]

Time for a new playlist

[@notaskinvvalker]

Kelsie LeCrone why not both? lol

[@comettamer]

Kelsie LeCrone they really do, something I admit to having never noticed before.

[@Mitri_the_teifling]

blue thrash, exactly what I've been needing.

[@musting76]

kragoon1 how about sawgrass

[@Junglehunter677]

Thrash grass

[@geminigrrl66]

I have just found my new favorite band of soon to be 2017. I'd love to see these guys live!

[@Trillian-pjn]

They are SO. GOOD.

[@alexholycross9524]

Thank you guys so much!

[@eljonny3801]

Fuck man... This shit is good!! Trash Grass huh? Not bad... 😅👍👏

[@321bendover]

Jonny González Thrash*

[@musting76]

Jonny González mmm how about sawgrass

[@bamafencer12]

Fuck I've been looking for a hard rock bluegrass mix!! Fuck yeah please tour Colorado!!!

[@driverbass1554]

Just saw you guys on No Cover. As soon as your song was over I looked you guys up and so glad you have a KZbin channel! I didn't even know a show like that existed. My dad had a HUGE record collection because he always wanted to be a DJ. So, I've listened to and have appreciation for so many styles of music. I have always liked the hard, heavy, intense styles. As you guys said, l always noticed the intensity in metal and folk. You have an awesome blend going there! I have lived in Michigan all my life, started in Detroit area, now in Northern Michigan, so it's awesome to see Michigan getting some love and attention. Rock on guys! I'm most definitely a fan!

[@TheNativeHowl]

Thank you

[@Kezren1]

When its time to saddle up in red dead online, get the posse together and skin those smoke wagons

[@michaelgibson2160]

OMG!! You fellas are freaking incredible!! Most original sound I've heard in decades!! Consider me a fan!!

[@teacup.sasquatch]

under 50K club. This song is gonna blow up! You heard it here first.

[@kunstderfugue]

Hey, I'm here from the future and it looks like you made 1700% profits, congratulations!

[@austinmcclung284]

Well...if any genre was gonna do something like this. It’d be metal. AND IT WORKS

[@138NastyNate]

This is beyond BAD ASS Boys!! Great job!! Keep this shit coming!!!

[@HelenaKirby]

SO FUCKING AWESOME😍😍😍

[@MODGamerX]

Woot I'm the millionth view

[@team-marceezysadventures3102]

I like the innovation in sound behind this song. there's a reason this song stands out over your other songs. embrace the sound you have created and headline it before the industry gets its hands on it and extorts it like they have done with so many genres over the years.

[@PacoFTW]

This is so fuckin sick. You guys are awesome.

[@1098234567]

Wasn't sure what to think at first but this is kick ass! Grew up on bluegrass but never really cared for it, this is something I can listen to!

[@gearedupproduction8290]

somebody call Chris Stapleton these two need to do a song!!

[@alexholycross9524]

That would seriously be a dream of mine for us to do a song with Chris S.! Hell yeah!

[@gearedupproduction8290]

Alex Holycross as a fan of y'all and Chris S. I request a song/album with him..

[@Besen666]

I just discovered your band via Loudwire. This is so great! Greetings from germany.

[@xXRogueFloppersXx]

Better bass sound than most thrash bands.

[@TheChesterKiwi]

I heard the first minute and immediately bought your album hahaha.

[@alexholycross9524]

Really appreciate that, thanks Chris

[@brandonmaloney9758]

if that ain't worth a album purchase l don't know what the fuck is

[@ilikefoxesm817]

This is the best thing I've ever heard! My new anthem.

[@LordChrome375]

When I saw this on Facebook I thought this was a joke. But seeing this now I am so happy it wasn't. Like this is some creative shit man, and it works!

[@RGD1982]

The lead singer would be the outcome if lemmy kilmister and Jason momoa had a baby

[@bradk6915]

So, apparently I am the lead singers identical twin... my buddy showed me this video for that exact reason, glad he did. You guys are epic!

[@TheNativeHowl]

Haha you wouldn't believe how many comparisons Alex gets to lookalikes!... And apparently now he has a twin! Too many doppelgangers out there to keep track of I tell ya. Thanks so much for listening man! Check out our latest video too if you haven't yet- kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpazhXqPaKuJgMU - Chandler (Bassist)

[@bradk6915]

The Native Howl Now if only I could be as talented! You guys are all excellent. I'll go check it out now. Thanks!

[@TheNativeHowl]

Ahh shucks, thanks. Cool, let us know what you think!

[@bradk6915]

The Native Howl Awesome! Just purchased your album on Google and left a five star review. Keep up the great work!

[@TheNativeHowl]

Hell yeah, you da man, thanks !

[@billbercik944]

I play guitar and have for 40 years and i didn't think anyone could write a new style of music but these guys did what I thought impossible just goes to show you nothing is impossible

[@TheNativeHowl]

Thank you so much for those words!!!!! 🎶🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@wRonG765]

You guys are incredible! I love metal and bluegrass and you've married the two so we'll, this song has quenched my musical thirst, thanks so much guys

[@TheNativeHowl]

Ron, that is exactly what we were hoping for! Thanks a ton and we have much more in store for our upcoming album!

[@danieloleary26]

Damn!

[@everrenee]

I will never get sick of this song! Amazing 😍 Even better live 🙌🏼

[@eddyg3972]

I love Bluegrass. I love Heavy Metal. Now I know what you get if you breed the two together. I love it!!!

[@paintingfences1113]

Minds blown here in Phoenix. Would definitely come catch a show if you came out here!

[@williamewin4378]

it's like if Amon Amarth had grown up in the southern america instead of scandinavia. basically perfect.

[@pherson2]

I’m here because Tyler Childers’ song mentions “Thrash Grass band” and I found these guys! I wish I found out sooner!

[@PaulTheSkeptic]

But in all seriousness, you're a fun band. I'd love to see you live. Ever get down to Florida? Oh, you guys not being obscene maniacs probably avoid that area don't you?

[@xgxmanx]

I love this band… I love this song… I love this video… I wish this video would never end, or at least was two hours long…

[@RandomBros88]

4:27- Onward. I love how heavy that sounds lol!! Bangin' my head to bluegrass.. that's a new one to tell the folks.

[@Leedguitar2]

This is simply amazing! The riffs and licks on both the guitar and the banjo are incredible... and that bass was stand out as well. Throw in some excellent drumming and and I have a new amazing band to listen to non stop!

[@johnnyschuler1997]

At 2:42 he cuts loose and is amazing.

[@nathaniel1800]

Joseph Pingel guy can fucking play 👌

[@piromans666]

That's brilliant

[@TheNativeHowl]

Great to hear, thanks! Good to know the song is keeping it's interest after multiple listens.

[@PitViper-1366]

When you're born in California (birth place of Thrash), raised in Tennessee, and you want to embrace your current surroundings, but you don't wanna forget your roots either.

[@Ephyne]

Yeah... I can get into this. 👍

[@Mirnum007]

Every time I hear this song I'm always imagining a high speed horse chase across the plains of Texas from the old West

[@normturner4849]

That would be a damn fast chase! 🐎

[@kunstderfugue]

Shoutout to TheChartGuys who brought me here, amazing music.

[@lllerlll]

I'm actually surprised they are not Finnish

[@alexphalon7364]

This sounds like what the lovechild of Ygnwie Malmsteen and Charlie Daniels would be like

[@zachalmquist7409]

I'm seriously freaking out right now. This is so awesome I can't even put words to it.

[@darylshealy899]

Hey Alex,its Daryl.I am off of Facebook now but I still LOVE YOU FELLAS!!!!

Riding my Harley to this song made my experience 5000% better.

[@piercefishing3412]

fucking badass fellas

[@timelordtrains2068]

the guitarist aggressively strumming in the direction of the grim reaper is the best thing i've ever seen holy sHIT

[@remvalo591]

Absolutely in love with this song. Checking out all ur stuff and sending it to everyone I know lmao. Keep it up bro's , love from the netherlands.

[@TheNativeHowl]

Good to hear from over the pond there, thanks a lot! If you haven't seen it yet, here's the most recent video we released- kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZqDVdneOYqqHiNE - Chandler (Bassist)

The Native Howl thanks chandler ! Im gonna check it out right away

[@lindaenroth2664]

Brilliant playing guitar banjo style. Impressed !

[@chopstix906]

You need to tour with Billy Strings. Both from Michigan (represent), both with metal influences. It's inevitable.

[@mykee426]

This song will never ever get old. I have had to replace numerous speakers cuz of this banger 🤘😎🤘

[@Awakener23]

Love it! But it ain’t bluegrass without a mandolin and fiddle... would love to see a grass version!

[@TheNativeHowl]

There is a bit of both coming up on the new record!

[@robertcallii4564]

lovin this song and plan to add this to add it to my riding play list. This song just kicks ass hope to find more like it!

[@BitchIInventedStubborn]

I only just recently (like ten minutes ago) discovered your music and I am really, really digging it. Why no one has ever really thought to blend bluegrass with thrash metal in such a major way is crazy. Because the marriage of the two is obvious. I love this.

[@rodgerwilliamsscambaiting1196]

I would love to see him start the crowd with a wall of death then end in a two step lol

[@TheTomTomsMusic]

NICE VIDEO GUYS! Sharing this!

[@SOTSMI-TV]

This song IS the theme song of MICHIGAN!!! So friggin awesome! Still in awe that I had the chance to chat with Alex on my podcast!! 👊😎 Keep rocking guys!!

[@danielsheehan3783]

This is fucking awesome!

[@mummymayhem23]

fucking addicted...you boys need to come play Kitchener Ontario!!!

[@Hunter_Wonton]

Saw this through Facebook, and i have to say that if the rest of the music you make is similar to this style, this might just be my new favorite band. You guys are amazing, so keep up the great work!

[@alexholycross9524]

Thanks Hunter
