ENEMY! by Phantom of the Black Hills

++FREE Digital Lyric Booklet+++
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
Cramps bassist Chopper Franklin and mixed by legendary punk rock
producer Geza X (Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, The Germs, The Mau
Maus).
“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.
On ENEMY!:
“The first two albums must’ve been dress rehearsals for this release.
Lyrically more dark and intense than the previous two releases,
ENEMY! is filled with musical imagery of war, lust, death, and hell..The arrangement of the music is flawless, the lyrics are controversial as ever and I f**king love this album” Jacks Insanity – PoDunk Radio

"Phantom of the Black Hills, one of the outlaw music scene's favorite bands of renegade pickers, strummers, pluckers and bangers, is back and continuing to terrorize the musical wagon trail of the current roots revival with their sound of doom country, frontier-core, and hellbilly punk."
