[edit] Influences
The band mixes a lot of other music styles to the Hardcore, especially country, Irish and bluegrass. Their lyrics, most of them with a comedy tone, are inspired by the American "old west" mood. The band members are great admirers of Johnny Cash, playing live covers. Another point of the band is their disbelief in people (including themselves), in institutions and in the world. This pessimistic point of view of life is the theme of various songs.
