Foddershock


AcousticAppalachianDysfunctionalFolkRock from the dusty black coalfields of southwest Virginia, smack dab in the middle of the gothic country weirdness of Dickenson County, Foddershock is a collaboration between two long time friends- one that writes strangely truthful and surreal lyrics about the inevitable imperfections of human nature, and one that puts it all together with a unique and perfectly twisted blend of American roots music. Songs about love, hate, life, death, drinkin`, snortin', shootin' and killin`. Sometimes tragic. Sometimes funny. Always interesting. Everything from guitar driven Alt. Country to bluegrass to a weird mix of banjos and walkie-talkies that can only be described as southern banjer trance. Put John Prine, The Grateful Dead, and the Bad Livers in a blender and you gotta a big ol` glass of Foddershock. Drink up! (it tastes like pork juice)... Formed under the influence of alcohol in 2000, Foddershock released their first album- Roadkill Expressway. A rather dark and haunting album, with tunes such as Amphetamines and Grits, Sock Monkey, and Monster in the Closet. 2001 saw the release of their second album, Ghost Of Lonzo. This album contains one of their most popular songs, Drunkards Go To Hell. The song Jump In The River is also on this release and was recently used in the independent film Coming Down The Mountain produced by N.Y.C.`s Cyan Pictures. 2002 brought yet another fine Foddershock album, One Good Eye. Difficult to categorize, this album...
