| The only bands I can think of that has the country feel is Volbeat, Bret Michaels/Poison and Bon Jovi has had some cross over are there any others? Is there a band playing metal with a country accent, steel guitars, banjos, and fiddles? |

| I'm sure you've heard of Rebel Meets Rebel, right? The project between David Allen Coe and the late Dimebag Darrell.

| NIce shout outs with Travis Shredd and The Waltons!! Quite enjoy both of these bands.
Hank Williams III has a "metal" band called Assjack that is quite good.
Here's Hank playing the Misfit stickered guitar with some Slayer and Sepultura: http://youtu.be/mbPT9e16OsM
And again with a Pagan's Mind cover: http://youtu.be/FgeUJ4QlYjI
And lastly Hank III shredding old school rebel punk country style! http://youtu.be/S0pUv2n4EQI
The kid's got mad skills as a musician and songwriter!

| Zakk Wylde's (Pride and Glory) album had a country feel... but more Southern Rock overall. |

| David Allen Coe is way too redneck/sexist/racist for me to be able to stomach.

| The dude that did "Chicken and Biscuits" and some Hank III have some "metal" aspcts to it. Some yooungster who works as a laborer on the paver was listening to them at the campground. _________________  |

| The Supersuckers released an country-flavored album, Must've Been High, and their later stuff has some country-tinged elements to it. Cowpunk is what the kids call it these days. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowpunk Not sure if that's what you're looking for though. Might be more punk & rock, than metal. _________________ A legend in posting since February 1st, 2007

| I need to track me down some of that WALTONS stuff!!
I like a bit of Coe's early work..before his prison stint and racist albums...I also liked the REBEL MEETS REBEL disc.
The e.p. by THE SNAKEHANDLERS is a great cowpunk experience. That band features KIX guitarist Brian Forsythe. I think you can get it through CD Baby.
