👍 agreed I stumbled onto them here & clicked on a video bc l liked their look ~ what's funny is they sound a lot like I'd imagined and I'm not disappointed lol I do wish they had a little more bass solo🙂
"Ive been drinking heavy so many damn years, trying to recap my life. Every night Jehovah finds my side and I can't help but fight." those are amazing lyrics!
Metal head here (obviously), these guys popped up on TH-cam yesterday. I listened to about 8 of their songs ...they...are.... AWESOME! Great musicians, great vocal harmonies, great lyrics, feeling. Not over produced. I'm now officially a fan of THE DEAD SOUTH
I'm not a man of faith, but sometimes i believe the universe is a living force itself.One day, i thought "man, i wanna hear that badass old west kinda music", then i searched for "hillbilly music", even tho i didn't exactly know what "hillbilly" means, and then found these guys.The universe has an amazing way of bringing things together.
Absolutely. My best friend turned me on to these guys less than a week ago and i can't get anything done, because all i wanna do is sit & watch and listen to them. I AM IN LOVE!!! Especially with Danny (cello), Scott (mandolin), and Nate (lead guitar).
I'm a huge Johnny Cash fan, been one for a few years now. Discovered these guys randomly on a bluegrass Playlist just yesterday, and already my favorite band. Love this kind of music.
This is folk music; it's true Americana. These are incredibly skilled musicians, playing professional instruments. The song writing is truly creative. Regards, George Armstrong
@kerristupak1558 you are Americans anyhow. From the far north of the American continent. There's South America, North America and the far North. 😁. Still part of America. Canada. Still part of America, the United States. Still part of America, All the southern countries of the continent. ❤️ Beautiful.
Love it when Danny integrates some of his classical training into it. The band is great as it is but that just puts in yet another layer of brilliance into it.
Bought this album. I don't even listen to this type of music and I've only bought maybe 5 cds in the past 3 years. I listen to metal but for whatever reason I REALLY like these guys. Awesome stuff!
This is fuckin great. I hate that alot of people don't like country music because they think it's about trucks, blondes, guns and whiskey. Try listening to dark country I'm sure you'll like it
The Recap was playing at the end of the TV show Tin Star. Had to sound hound them and see who they were. OMG love their songs been You Tubing them for the last 2 hours!!!!! I'm so glad I found them!!!! Aweosme!
My friends favorite song, hated when he played it everyime we rolled on ecstasy. Now its my favorite since he passed away from a heroin overdose. Now i live to carry on his legacy.
@@Magik02 He is taking DRUGS the same as his dead friend, Hell yes I'm telling him, and nothing is wrong with me, something is wrong with ppl taking drugs
Many many moons ago, (40 or so) i realized I had pigeonholed myself regarding music. You know, it's Rock and Roll, or its Country or nothing. Over time I started listening to music outside my self made prison, and realized that there's a lot more out there. This was in part by, as a LEO, whenever i arrested someone, alit of times, they were in the back seat yelling, cussing, etc., putting their kind of music on the radio, in time they would hear a song they liked and would shut up so they could hear the song. Ever so often, by the time we got to the jail they would actually tell me ( your not so bad after all). This of course exposed me to a wide range of music. So my philosophy change to, if I like it, I like it. The Dead South definitely falls into my box of likes. I find the addition of a Cello in Blue Grass is in genius. So far this band is one of my favorites, hope they don't radically change as some do. Guess it must be really hard for a band to stick with a format over the course of their career. Ricky Nelson said something like, hear I am singing the same damn songs after all this time. Guess that's the downside of an entertainment carrier. Now say that, their are several singers and bands that I wish they would change or leave. Lol
2:00 - 2:42 Sounds SO much like sublime to me. This has never happened to me before. I hate country with a passion. But these guys are FUCKING GREAT! Only listened to 3 songs on here. But I love ALL of 'em. Such amazing song writers. Blending blues, rockabilly, with just dash of country. GENIUS
I'm a big classics guy, like back to civil war songs classic. And these guys kind of bring that feel to modern rock and even if i get bored of em i listen to something like the wanderer or great pretender and i say "hell, y'know what would make this better. A cover by dead south" and i come right back to em
I went back to my birth city in Western Europe some years ago & an Arabic type song was playing in the super market. I felt lost & my heart starting racing--I felt super stressed. That was not my type of music! I am Dixie music/american/english music lover thru & thru. I hardly could live without such awesome music. I found this group today. Where were you all my life? I thought The Dillards would be it, but here along comes The Dead South . . .
Well we're all wasted, in a bar Somewhere downtown When I man walks up and pokes me with a knife And says "man im gonna send you to hell" Well I took that knife, I stared him straight in the eyes I said "Oh boy you better fuckin' run, I've been sittin' Here just a slammin' down beers, now its time to have some fun" Oh Oh well he hit me hard, yeah he hit me good And then I fell to the ground, but I kicked him fast I kicked him real swift and he came a tumblin' down He took a stab at me and nearly cut me gut But I kicked that knife to the floor The I took his head and slammed it into the bar I don't think he'll come around no more Oh Well I've been drinkin' here for so many damn years Trying to recap my life Everynight trouble finds my sight and I can't help but fight With a bottle of Jack and a tin of skoal I'll be stickin' around 'till the day a man will put me away and I can rest my soul Well we're all wasted, in a bar Somewhere downtown When I man walks up and pokes me with a knife And says "man im gonna send you to hell" Well I took that knife, I stared him straight in the eyes I said "Oh boy this is the day" Then I grabbed that knife, stabbed it straight through my eye and Then I fell to my knees Oh Well I've been drinkin' here for so many damn years Trying to recap my life Every night trouble finds my sight and I can't help but fight With a bottle of Jack and a tin of skoal Tonight I'm goin' home Todays the day a man put me away and I can rest my soul Dude, the lyrics are amazing...
Debra Hall I agree the lyrics imply the narrator stabbed himself in the eye. Similar to how their song "Gunslingers Glory" implies that the narrator shot himself in the head. Their songs are quite dark and the narrator killing himself is the solution to the life situation he finds himself in.
I am a classicly trained cellist. Have not played in years. Most of the music did nothing for me. After watching and listening to these guys, am inspired to buy a cello and get with it again.
It's sort of like finding a great big gold nugget. Totally orignal style and sound, no drums, no piano just string and sort of playing lead on a banyo in some songs. They always find a way to blend it all together. People ask me what's there style of music and i say it's sort of like this but it sort of that. I now tell people just and make up your own mind. Its just a whole new sound lyrics and instrumental. Onya boys keep it coming.
Sooo hooked..... I discovered The Dead South this summer, then saw them LIVE at the V-Club in Huntington WV in Sept 2017 with about 100 people in attendance (must have been some random tour date). IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, they are way better live. They had a few different band members, the female banjo player/bass drum player was UNREAL. I can't wait for them to come back to the U.S for another show. Probably won't see them on a small stage like that for $15 bucks ever again, they are going BIGTIME.
I just saw them live in Portland, OR, and it was AWESOME! So glad that I got introduced to this band! I first heard of them at a music festival, Northwest String Summit, last summer, and my entire family and I have been hooked ever since!
My son just introduced me to these guys, well impressed, great music and cool look, makes me think of our time in the Carolina mountains, going to look for their album now!!
This is not my kind of music. AND I LOVE IT. God damn. Great shit. The music itself, the lyrics, and damn, that voice is amazing for the type of music this is, it couldn't be more perfect. Just amazing.
The Dead South is a metal band doing folk music, 100%. I can hear so many simularities between them and system of a down. The overlapping vocalists at the end of this song remind me of Serj and Daron. SOAD uses a lot of folk rifts. They are certainly cut from the same cloth in my opinon
LYRİCS Well we're all wasted, in a bar Somewhere downtown When I man walks up and pokes me with a knife And says "man I'm gonna send you to hell" Well I took that knife, I stared him straight in the eyes I said "Oh boy you better fuckin' run, I've been sittin' here just a slammin' down beers, now its time to have some fun" Oh...

The first notes of "In Hell...." are forever stuck in my head. I'm 63. Heavy metal fan/guitarist. Takes a lot for me to listen to country/WESTERN but this stuff is a classic. Is Hollywood calling?
This is a very good band that captures quite a few style, and mixes it's in there own unique style. It's intelligent and slightly tongue in cheek. It's a great sound with it's own merits, and has to been seen live in the setting of some some old dilapidated venue to catch the angle these guys are coming from. Please come to the UK, or to be more precise West Yorkshire.
One guy is not like the other....3 have beards, one is clean shaven. Way to stick out dude....well that and the cello, but still. Keep up the good work guys, your songs are just what i have been looking for. Edit: I don't mean this in an offensive or rude way.
stumbled onto "The Dead South" on youtube , the first video I saw was "In Hell I'll Be In Good Company" and I was hooked, didn't know where they're from, actually had to look on map to see where the hell Regina, SK. was , now I'm in the United States and didn't recognize the state abbreviation, lol, well Oh Canada who knew, great job guys keep up the great music and keep sharing these great music videos.
@@badfish41969 In many an interview, they described their music as punk rock played on acoustic instruments, which is the very definition of Folk Punk.
I hope you know how many lives you affect with your music god bless your father I wish my father had that much faith in me who knows what I might have become thank you
Saw them in Seattle May 2022 was a make up show for one night they’re definitely up there with the greats of all time a well put together band will see them again any chance i can awesome show!!
I just discovered these guys 2-weeks ago. I have since bought all 3 of their albums and have been listening to them whenever I can. I've been introducing their music to all of my friends. These good ol' Canadian boys have a sound that I really enjoy.
awesome stuff I'm discovering and loving new music Shakey Graves dead South Colter wall hopefully more can't believe you don't hear more about these people
I want the Dead South to pin this comment: The way you turned the cello into a poor man's bass while playing heavy metal riffs on the banjo profoundly inspired me as a musician. My up & coming Folk Punk band is going to be a shoe-in at the Grammys thanks to you guys for providing me with all the inspiration!
Un sung heros. An entire population of the world were manipulated to risk life and health for the mining of raw goods. Thankyou for remembering them all with your Talents!

I think we all discovered them by accident, and that's part of their charm. It's called serendipity.
👍 agreed
I stumbled onto them here & clicked on a video bc l liked their look ~ what's funny is they sound a lot like I'd imagined and I'm not disappointed lol
I do wish they had a little more bass solo🙂
Truth
Agree! Speaks to my soul! Luv u guys
Kismet
These guys are awesome. They’ve been around for a minute. U stumbled upon greatness!!!!
I just adore the singer's gritty voice! And the mandolin player's voice balances it so perfectly! Wonderful complement to each other!
This really is what music should be. Not the crap that passes for music these days... Keep it up guys!
real. current pop music is so formulaic, only do these chords, these progressions, it's boring, corporatized mush. this feels so fresh and lively.
7 Years of listening and have not been disappointed once. If I had the power, I would nominate them for a living legend award.
I am sharing this with everybody I know. This is the shit we didn't know we were missing.
"Ive been drinking heavy so many damn years, trying to recap my life. Every night Jehovah finds my side and I can't help but fight." those are amazing lyrics!
@@Magnificent2600 those are not the lyrics. But ok........

They know how to roll that jam grass
Completely superb. I love this band.

And that's the power of beautiful music my brother

Absolutely. My best friend turned me on to these guys less than a week ago and i can't get anything done, because all i wanna do is sit & watch and listen to them. I AM IN LOVE!!! Especially with Danny (cello), Scott (mandolin), and Nate (lead guitar).
It's 4:15am on a Sunday morning right now and I want to crack a cold one and listen to these guys all day!!!

The way Nate looks into the camera and says "Oh, boy you better fuckin' run.." kills me every time

Welcome to Canada!
I am a classicly trained cellist. Have not played in years. Most of the music did nothing for me. After watching and listening to these guys, am inspired to buy a cello and get with it again.
" True artists aren't recognized until they're gone .. " -- But you're already Dead, right ??
My name is Esther, and I just love the four of you'll together....love the banjo... Instrumentals, Lyrics, voices, so good...
Quality music right here, not really my usual jazz but you know what there's sommat about these guys that just pulls me back time after time

This is the kind of country Hillbilly that hits you where you live. This should be on the radio, not that popular trash. New favorite band right here!
Obviuosly the best band out of the 'Dead South' of Canada in.........years! Really - most unique 'talented' band in decades!
This is country music i have wanted to listen to for years...not the shit that normally passes for country lately. Love you guys.
This is straight out of the Old West.
It has more of a blue grass music feel to me than country.
Can you believe this style of bluegrass coming from Canadians? They've got it down
I adore these guys and have been listening to them for ages...IMAGINE MY EXCITEMENT WHEN THIS KICKS IN DURING A SCENE IN THE TV SHOW TIN STAR
this song is one of a kind such freedom in this melody such manliness salute guys never stop creating that diamonds !!!!!!!

Well I took that knife, I stared him straight in the eyes
I said "Oh boy this is the day"
Then I grabbed that knife, stabbed it straight through my eye and
Then I fell to my knees
Oh...
Well I've been drinkin' here for so many damn years
Trying to recap my life
Every night trouble finds my sight and I can't help but fight
With a bottle of Jack and a tin of skoal
Tonight I'm goin' home
Today's the day a man put me away and I can rest my soul
Love these guys!!!!
The first notes of "In Hell...." are forever stuck in my head. I'm 63. Heavy metal fan/guitarist. Takes a lot for me to listen to country/WESTERN but this stuff is a classic. Is Hollywood calling?
these guys would be great to go see play with Nathaniel Ratliff and the night sweats
Eric Elson, dude you read my mind
son of a bitch gimmie a drink
cheers fellers
them and reverend Horton heat...!
Got to see Horton Heat and The Tossers perform at Joliet IL...was truly a treat to see that.
thank you dead south....for your music and your soul that you gave to me....
This is a very good band that captures quite a few style, and mixes it's in there own unique style. It's intelligent and slightly tongue in cheek. It's a great sound with it's own merits, and has to been seen live in the setting of some some old dilapidated venue to catch the angle these guys are coming from. Please come to the UK, or to be more precise West Yorkshire.
Holmfirth picturedrome?
Kelvin Wilson and Norwich.
Go to any confederate states where the union burned down cities thats the impression i get
cmguitar2094 they're Canadian so...
i mean, theyd probablly fit in around where i live haha or maybe in PA. dont relly know too much about this style in canada
One guy is not like the other....3 have beards, one is clean shaven. Way to stick out dude....well that and the cello, but still. Keep up the good work guys, your songs are just what i have been looking for.
Edit: I don't mean this in an offensive or rude way.
stumbled onto "The Dead South" on youtube , the first video I saw was "In Hell I'll Be In Good Company" and I was hooked, didn't know where they're from, actually had to look on map to see where the hell Regina, SK. was , now I'm in the United States and didn't recognize the state abbreviation, lol, well Oh Canada who knew, great job guys keep up the great music and keep sharing these great music videos.
Same, I'm hooked. I might love bluegrass now
That was the first song i heard too i fuckin love it
Josh Beach The devil makes three is another great one if you haven’t heard of them yet
Ahhh like in fugget about et youtube show.
@@hopeplumbingllc8122 I recently came across them, fecking awesome Especially that old number 7 track.
Every time I think I’ve heard every good song from these guys I find another one. I should know by now.
Yeah i don't get to say this very often but that cello player is fuckin bad ass
What's even more badass is how he plays it like a bass guitar, which is very much like Folk Punk.

@@marvinthemaniac7698 would you consider them folk punk? I always kind of thought of them as alternative country but maybe you're right
@@jodysmith333 that is indeed a bad ass cello player thanks for turning me on to that page
@@badfish41969 In many an interview, they described their music as punk rock played on acoustic instruments, which is the very definition of Folk Punk.
I hope you know how many lives you affect with your music god bless your father I wish my father had that much faith in me who knows what I might have become thank you
Saw them in Seattle May 2022 was a make up show for one night they’re definitely up there with the greats of all time a well put together band will see them again any chance i can awesome show!!
Hell yeah, man. I saw them in Kansas City August 2022. Such a great show.
I just discovered these guys 2-weeks ago. I have since bought all 3 of their albums and have been listening to them whenever I can. I've been introducing their music to all of my friends. These good ol' Canadian boys have a sound that I really enjoy.

I tell everyone about these guys. Best I have heard in a long while...you got to admit they are original
This is like the country version of Tenacious D. I love it.
They're also Mumford & Sons' evil twins!
It's not a happy song but god damn it, I'm happy.

Tin Star! ⭐️
My daughters, 6 and 12, and I are excited to get to see you guys! July in Santa Fe!!!!

Ditto.
Probably one of my favorite songs by The Dead South right here
Music is awesome dosn't matter the genre as long as it has heart I'll listen to it
This band made RESPECT whiskey, I don't drink it but! I respect the hell out of it!
I want the Dead South to pin this comment:
The way you turned the cello into a poor man's bass while playing heavy metal riffs on the banjo profoundly inspired me as a musician. My up & coming Folk Punk band is going to be a shoe-in at the Grammys thanks to you guys for providing me with all the inspiration!
Nice one dude.
@@fromcreationtochrist9349 thank you, all that needs to happen now is for this comment to get pinned.
The dead south is playing south of the equator. On ya bloke's, bloody good shit mate!
You are my favorite band
Un sung heros. An entire population of the world were manipulated to risk life and health for the mining of raw goods. Thankyou for remembering them all with your Talents!
2:07 mmmm that sound is THE. BEST.
Katie Runyon Yes indeed.
Katie Runyon yep that part is amazing
Katie Runyon that's the good shit

Katie Runyon agreed!
No one gets this good by accident. They love it, and we all can tell. Because we love it too!
Cheers, Tin Star.
The harmony and the way everything flows together, just hits me in the soul.. powerful music guys keep it up.
