The Buzz On...
"TRAVIS, WE ALL LOVE YOUR STUFF. YOU DA MAN!"
"I LIKED IT. GIVE THE OL' HOMEBOYS EVERY INCH OF MY LOVE."
"TRAVIS...A MUSICAL GOD."
...DAVE BARRY, syndicated comic

A country boy in a cowboy hat who digs metal and
hip-hop as much as honky tonk? Who mixes motor-mouth raps with
chunky power chords and weepy steel guitar? Call Travis Shredd
gimmicky if you must, but you can't deny his music is fun, funny,
and full-throttle energized. Watch out and hang on.
"an ongoing and underpublicized miracle in the Seattle scene... Shredd's mix of death metal, country and rap is the most succinct mix of modern America available..."
...DAVE LILJENGREN, Pandemonium

"This is what happens when you play country music
backwards. Travis...shifted gears faster than a Daytona 500 race
car driver, moving adroitly from lumbering country to an amphetamine
blur of head-banging metal. His fashion sense and guitar prowess
make him the dark prince of country music."
...REVIEW OF NXNW SHOW ON OREGONLIVE.COM
"An udder-yanking hybrid of thrash metal, pig-porkin'
country and chest beating rap. There's a song on here for
everyone."
...JEFF GILBERT, Guitar World Magazine
"One listen to 'My Ex's Lawyer is the Antichrist' or 'Fire
in Her Eyes (hail satan)' and you'll be a believer pardner/dude/homey.
These guys put on a live show that'll have you headbanging, two-stepping
and laughing yourself stupid."
"...CUTS THROUGH THE POST-GRUNGE GLOOM LIKE A CLOWN WAGON AT A COUNTY FAIR."
...GENE STOUT, Seattle Post-Intelligencer
"THERE'S PLENTY OF FINGER-LICKING, HELL-SPEWING, BASS THUMPING MUSIC. IT WORKS INCREDIBLY WELL."
...MIKE SAVOIA, The Rocket Magazine
"In the rodeo, where imminent injury or death are often
inches away, only the best riders and ropers get to be clowns.
With this excellent work of post modern country neo hip hop thrashing,
the future looks promising for Travis Shredd and the Good Ol'
Homeboys."
