Yeeehaaaaaa! Finished watching "Deadwood"? Put on your cowboy boots, we're heading into town! Walking through the main street with "Dead Rider Theme" playing in the background, you feel the adrenaline pumping. The boys are ready for a bar fight! Entering the saloon first song "This Long and Lonely Drive To Hell" blasts out of the stereo. The doors open and "Justify" makes you draw your guns and look around for possible victims. The bar gets silent. Many cowboys are playing poker with "Scratch Dealt Me a Dirty Hand" as cheating soundtrack. Just as things are about to get nasty, the quiet ENNIO MORRICONE flavor of "The Holy Breath" kicks in and things settle down...but not for our hero, as revenge turns into "Iron Fuck".

You probably get the picture, GOD'S REVOLVER are a bunch of cowboys who wished they were living back in the days. Vocalist Reid sounds almost exactly like Lou Koller from SICK OF IT ALL. Musically, everyone who likes BLACK LABEL SOCIETY or MOTÖRHEAD should give this one a try. The album is filled to the rim with crunching riffs, but also features moments of rest like the slow blues of "Boxes Done Buried".

This disc deserves an honest listen. The western concept is well-executed, not only in songs but also in the lyrics and the great artwork inside the booklet. Best played with lots of whiskey, classic westerns, and fine women nearby!
