I love the good lessons from the GD Billy has taken up the mantle on. Rarely repeat a song on a run, taper friendly, free killer sb streams for free when there isn't a video stream, ers mixed in with superb original compositions. IMO they've mastered covering all bases and keeping it interesting with traditional and rare deep track covers in beautiful venues. Fan friendly all around. I've yet to hear a show that I didn't enjoy the hell out of tbh.

lol imagine reading Psycho on a setlist and thinking it's not dark enough. Dude in the song kills the neighbor, the neighbor's puppy, a nice girl and Jackie Whit, plus his mom all in one 3 minute song. I guess Billy should find a trad song about skinning people alive?
Can Mary fry some fish, Mama?
I'm as hungry as can be
Oh lordy, how I wish, Mama
You could keep the baby quiet cause my head is killing me
I seen my ex last night, Mama
At a dance at Miller's store
She was with that Jackie White, Mama
I killed 'em both, and they're buried under Jenkin's sycamore
[Chorus]
Don't you think I'm psycho, Mama?
You can pour me a cup
If you think I'm psycho, mama
Better let 'em lock me up
[Verse 2]
Don't hand the dog to me, Mama
I might squeeze him too tight
And I'm as nervous as can be, Mama
But let me tell you 'bout last night
I woke up in Johnny's room, Mama
Standing right by his bed
With my hands near his throat, Mama
Wishing both of us was dead
[Chorus]
You think I'm psycho don't you, Mama?
I just killed Johnny's pup
You think I'm psycho don't you, Mama?
You better let 'em lock me up
[Verse 3]
You know the little girl next door, Mama
I think her name is Betty Clark
Aw, don't tell me that she's dead, Mama
Why I just seen her in the park
She was sittin' on a bench, Mama
Thinking up a game to play
Seems I was holding a wrench, Mama
Then my mind walked away
[Chorus]
You think I'm psycho don't you, Mama?
Didn't mean to break your cup
You think I'm psycho don't you, Mama?
Mama, Mama, why don't you get up?
[Outro]
Say something to me, Mama
Mama, why don't you get up?
Mama?

There's a lot of dark and macabre tunes in the American Roots Music songbook, surprised Billy didn't dig a little deeper.
Oh The Wind And The Rain
In The Pines
Stagger Lee
The Ballad Of Omie Wise
Frankie & Albert
all those tunes on The Louvin Brothers Tragic Songs Of Life album

It's not traditional, or roots music, but Skinned is Blind Melon's tribute to Ed Gein.
