Black Rain

1984: While attending WVU, I noticed significant similarities between many punk and bluegrass songs:

A) They use the same 3 or 4 chords,
B) They have lots of up-tempo bits, and...
C) They are either about bad relationships or political protest.

This song was the inevitable result of that insight.

Synopsis: Bluegrass/Punk fusion, political protest song about rural survivors of a global thermonuclear war.
