Q&A: Patterson Hood On Drive-By Truckers’ Angry Political Anthem “The Perilous Night”

[Clams]

New video too

And it’s hard to write anything with much finesse about what’s going on because it’s such a clusterfuck. It’s like writing about a bowel movement. It’s hard to write anything eloquent about diarrhea, and that’s kind of what the political situation in our country is right now. It’s just like a big exploding shit.

This track is fucking amazing. I'm sure it was every bit as hard to write as Patterson describes but goddamn did he nail it. Loved the song live but the sonics of this are really great. Can't wait to hear the vinyl.

[Rocky]

Fuckin' love it.

For the DBT scholars, who is singing the backing vocals in the chorus? Just Jay?

Patterson on Trump: "He's just a fucking exploding shit."

What a fine line. I'm moving on from Dotard to the Fucking Exploding Shit.

Jay may be the swiss army knife of musicians, but even he can't sound like 3 women singers.

[ramonz]

Fuck Yeah.

Loved this song within 30 seconds of hearing it for the first time at the Orange Peel shows a few weeks ago. LOVE the studio version, LOVE the video.

I wish Cooley's guitar was a little higher up in the mix.

Uh oh. Someone alert Iowan that Zip has apparently hacked his 3dd account!

Of course being Rolling Stone it only took 'til the third paragraph before they misquoted the lyrics (Dumb, white and angry with their cup filled) in an article that includes a lyric video!

Truth is, you're right about Coley's guitar. Also, not sure exactly what they're called, but I love those little falling star or whatever sound effects that are going on in this song.

Loving this song. Instant Hood classic. Loving the backing vocals. We can have more of that.
