Not saying this band isn't big, but this band should be bigger than they are now. Filled with talent and a sound of their own. Nobody else sounds like The Reverend Horton Heat.

[@jobdone4828]

Musicly The first album from The Living End comes close although they had more of an English punk sound.

[@ultimateathiest7001]

Easily the most underated guitarist, bassist, and drummer in the world.

[@glennbo76]

+UltimateAthiest So true!

[@jamesconnor2278]

EASILY, and BY FAR!!!

[@j.c.mattos6574]

I agree

[@RemarkableSean]

That's what I told Jim Heath the first time I met him.

[@SuperCrackerjacks]

These guys are playing their asses off. This is a true double masterpiece! I thought this was more a studio song but no, no.

[@lawrenceozuna1949]

no one plays guitar quite like Jim Heath

[@frankpritz6997]

Don't forget Jimbo. I don't know anybody else that can triple slap a bass like him.

[@scottcooneymusic6736]

gotta love the Rev. All children should be introduced to music this way. Blues, rock, psychobilly, punk, western and everything in between

[@lorimeyers3839]

This is like, probably the best performance I’ve ever seen. Holy fuck.

[@captainahab3355]

Same here

[@robertswickard3700]

Jim Heath and the boys make me want to go find a rust bucket 1960 something ,put a 427 with duel Holly pumpers on a tunnel ram intake and see how fast I can tear the tires of the rims , blood pumping fun with tattooed women !!!!!!!!

[@dereka8041]

Holly Carburetors is located in my home town. Bowling Green, KY.

[@dereka8041]

@The Chicago Goblin I'm still in the nation of Kentucky, but go Cubbies! Been a Cubs fan since 1981!

[@joshchase4225]

Jim Heath is a ruler

[@jameskerr7439]

Very good drummer to keep timing like this all the time. Makes it look easy.

[@rickkomorowski3370]

Scott C is quite possibly the best drummer alive today , he is absolutely fantastic !!!

[@jamesconnor2278]

WOW!!! Never heard this performance before! JUST FUCKIN WOW!!! BLOWN AWAY!

[@tollchuck]

Why didn't I hear about this on the facebook feed? Infernal technolgy. Love this.

[@jasons2851]

Love this band. Saw them twice in the 90s and love them to this day!

[@vladimirvaynkhadler8726]

james hetfields psycho-billy cousin

[@JeremyCasimir]

I've been going to see these guys since college. They are just as good as they were back in the late 90s

[@thethingofitis]

Question: not an interruption unless you I decided that ... Nevermind fuck that I'm rewinding it

[@ryanmct1892]

I am new to the Rev, but my god was I instantly and deeply hooked. Incredible band

[@germaniawolfnosheep9449]

this is pure not psychobilly this is pure rock a billy and ftw i love it

[@ianmurphy3840]

Anyone came here from Halloween Horror Nights in Orlando?

[@StephenSummerlin]

wow that was badass

[@carladdington7135]

They've got it all; writing, musicianship and performance. What a show!

[@Durangoking]

live is the only way with the Rev. Can I get a hallelujah!!

[@DC-rn1fc]

... and gasoline really smells good!

[@tracydiamond8727]

cracking tune 🖒🖒🖒🖒

[@paulmarsh9544]

Who doesn't like the smell of gasoline?

[@lorimeyers3839]

Incredible.

[@coytibbit6414]

Lol, my country-ass dad saw the Rev at a bar in Temple, TX a few years back and you’d think he attended a Death Metal concert the way he talks about it. I think he was expecting a standard 50’s-tribute type of thing. His 70+ years-old ass got his entire whig peeled back a few inches behind the ears.

[@angelicacasanova6419]

Damn, they're good!!!

[@aarod5849]

one of the few songs I play with the speaks all the way up

[@jackwinemiller8358]

first time I ever saw the heat they were opening for zz top in Mesa az, maybe 94 or 95, and theY blew zz top AWAY!!! you know mr gretsch is looking at all of his buddies and saying thats right friends and neighbors, he's doing that with one of MY guitars!!!

[@albacore101]

Holy mother of fuck! I needed to this! Thanks.

[@ironsights4me]

killin it.

[@ClockworkVic]

Norm Macdonald plays a mean upright bass

[@brooklynboiprod]

Amazing geetar work

[@Kinthalas]

These guys are absolute legends!

[@johnclark8446]

Was the drummer formerly of the band 'Supersuckers'?

[@benc2301]

John Clark yes he was. his name is Scott churilla

[@PFunkonice]

He just left the group AGAIN

[@lolxdtyp]

Greg Smith I hope they'll find an actual rockabilly drummer. Scott was good, damn good at that, but he's a rock drummer and I find him kinda intrusive in a few tracks.

[@PFunkonice]

GUESS I'VE NEVER NOTICED difference in a drummer. Give me an idea what you mean via track of songs.Rocker vs a Rockabilly drummer. I think this is the 2nd time Churilla has quit RHH.

[@lolxdtyp]

Greg Smith Scott's personal style is closer to how a drummer would play on an AC/DC or Motörhead song. As I said, he's REALLY good so he did his best to blend into RHH to the point of working out more often than not, but try comparing him to Johnny Zuidhof of Batmobile or Slim Jim Phantom (there's a video of him using a full kit, if you search for RHH with Lemmy).

[@60camarochick]

Can't wait to see you in Waterloo, Iowa again.

[@DavidGonzalez-tg6kw]

Dropping jams since 85

[@666CR666]

would love a tab of this

[@frank.w.buchanan4076]

200+ outta 10 awesome

[@aarod5849]

holy smokes

[@vdub1959]

I dig it.
