The Devil Makes Three: The Devil Makes Three
All-acoustic dark and badass oldtime countryish folk. Two guitars, stand-up bass, three voices. Songs about drinking and being discontent and rowdy. Lots of minor key; rhythmic, fast-flying, interesting lyrics that might belong in metal songs for their dreamy dark literal mythology, or rap songs for their belligerence. A bit understated, because of the sparse instrumentation, but cool nevertheless.

*1. (2:24) Bouncy sharp minor key taunting their enemies
2. (3:26) driven resonant midtempo, harmonies—graveyard of dreams
3. (2:33) bouncy oom-pah uptempo
**4. (2:45) strummy folksy, low nonchalant menacing vocals—catchy minor-key melody
5. (3:53) midtempo countryish, ogling-a-woman song, cheerful chord changes, harmonies
**6. (3:20) catchy minor-key ode to jack daniels and drinkin’ in heaven.
*7. (3:31) midtempo, intricate guitars,
*8. (2:45) upbeat country two-step, bluesy vocals
*9. (2:50) chugging train feel; cool vocal harmonies.
*10. (3:20) more mellow, rolling dance rhythm, dedicating to (dysfunctional) family members
