I saw these guys for the first time yesterday at the Ocean Springs Music Festival. I was really impressed by them. I may have to catch their next show at the Government Street Grocery on August 18th.
Check them out, listen, and post some comments.

"Mississippi rowdies in the spirit of Drive By Truckers envision Southern anarchy as what happens when a nice kid tries to go punk." SPIN
"...'Anarchy in the Southern States" picks up the cudgel laid down by the Sex Pistols and beats the banal and the mundane to death with it. It is as deafening an answer to corporate rock in the USA as Sweet Home Alabama was to Neil Young's Southern Man." NetRhythms.com
Goodman County is what happens when a truck full of rock n roll veers off the road and plows through a double-wide trailer. Instead of rebuilding the foundation, Goodman County makes their home inside the battered rig and uses the trailer for target practice. This is honest rock n roll with the heart of classic country and the emotion of true punk music. The Advocate in Baton Rouge
