In the meantime, you can also check out the first video from REVEREND HORTON HEAT’s new album, for the track “Let Me Teach You How To Eat.”

  • REVEREND HORTON HEAT introduced “psychobilly” to America in 1985
  • What is “pyschobilly”? A fusion of rock music that mixes the best elements of punk rock, rockabilly, blues, surf, and country. It is often played with an upright double bass and a hollowbody electric guitar, creating a commanding stage presence that begs for listeners to swing along.
  • Their hit “Psychobilly Freakout” has become an anthem of sorts for the genre, cementing The Rev’s spot in music history.

 

  • REVEREND HORTON HEAT is adding another notch in their belt by releasing their 11th studio album this November. Throughout their career, the band has sold over a million albums worldwide and has thousands in their flock of followers.
  • Commercial Success: Their music has been used as the soundtrack to multiple video games (Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3, Tony Hawk’s Proving Ground), used in multiple commercials (Buell American Motorcycles), and have millions of music fans attempting to master their hits on Guitar Hero II andGuitar Hero Smash Hits.
  •  Jim “The Rev” Heath has a signature guitar from the Gretsch Guitar Company ~ the 6120RHH.
  • Their charting albums include: Smoke ‘Em If You Got ‘Em (1990), The Full-Custom Gospel Sounds of The Reverend Horton Heat (1993), Liquor In The Front (1994), It’s Martini Time (1996), Space Heater (1998), Spend a Night In The Box (2000), Lucky 7 (2002), Revival (2004), We Three Kings (2005), and Laughin’ & Cryin’ with The Reverend Horton Heat (2009)
