Ratchet Blade Records is proud to announce the
release of Enemy, the highly-anticipated third album from
the notorious hellbilly/doom country band the Phantom of the Black
Hills. Enemy is the follow up to both Ghosts (2009)
and Born To Gun (2010) and was produced by The
Cramps bassist Chopper Franklin and mixed by legendary punk rock
producer Geza X (Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, The Germs, The Mau Maus).
Enemy will be released through Nail Distribution in early 2013, but will be sold online exclusively through the band’s website www.phantomoftheblackhills.com and Ratchet Blade Records’ website www.ratchetbladerecords starting on Sept. 18th. Both websites are featuring a special Pre Sale offer right now, $8 for the CD and a free backpatch. The Pre Sale page also features streaming of song samples of every track, to listen and get more information check http://phantomoftheblackhills.com/site/presale/ for more details.
“On Enemy we decided to push the banjo, fiddle and mandolin more to the front, but the guitars are as brutal as ever, too,” states the Phantom. “Taking two years on this one we were able to create heavier sound effects and loops, as well as write many more songs to choose from. And, yes, the lyrics are more controversial than ever.”
Phantom of the Black Hills is definitely one of the most innovative bands in the hellbilly/doom country genre. They mix traditional country instruments with searing guitars, distorted vocals, intense sound effects and movie dialog. Their songs are brutal missiles that blatantly encourage all to live a life of full freedom and protest the wrongs and hypocrisies of an oppressive society, all while fueled by massive amounts of whiskey, noise and pure rage.
