I do love me some Squidbillies . In fact, I love everything about the show except that it's on in the middle of the night when my old ass is hard at slumber. Anyway, if you're a fan of the show, you know damn well that the music is dazzling. And not only do you get twisted original songs performed by the show's voice talent (Unknown Hinson anyone?), but the creators have somehow managed to wrangle more than their fair share of bona fide musical celebs over the years, including such [...]
All the music that you don't want to miss this weekend.

If you've ever wondered what an animated version of Widespread Panic would look like, wonder no more as we'll get to see Jimmy Herring's multi-colored beard and Jojo's signature baseball cap in all its glory when the band appears on the season premiere of Cartoon Network's Squidbillies during Adult Swim on Sunday night, May 16 at midnight.

New Orleans, Louisiana's sons of Southern grindcore Soilent Green have recorded the opening theme song to "Squidbillies", an animated television series about a family of anthropomorphic hillbilly squids — the Cuyler family — that lives in indigence in the Appalachian region of North Georgia's mountains. The show's fourth season kicked off on May 17 on Adult Swim. Vocalist Ben Falgoust comments: "'Squidbillies' is the best cartoon…excuse me…show on TV/Internet/cable around! I felt that way before we did the theme tracks, and I feel even stronger about it since I've seen the new episodes, despite our involvement with the [...]
