Product DescriptionFrom the people who brought you 'Hillbillies In Hell'. 30 timeless tales of existential angst wrought from backwoods outsiders and Nashville misfits. Plaintive fiddles, furtive banjos and lonesome voices soundtrack a turbulent vista of eternal questions and unquenchable wanderlusts. Apocalyptic laments, harrowing self-examinations, faltering ids and devastated inebriates. Many originally waxed on private press labels and distributed in tiny amounts, these troubled, marginalised troubadours sing of collapsing egos and stygian landscapes of molten self-doubt. Years in the making - 'The Beginning Of The End' presents existential howls and Freudian diatribes from forgotten 45s, broken preachers and disrupted transgressives. All for your bewildered listening pleasure.
