@@squiremuldoon5462 That's the kind of nonsense that makes "fans" hope that "their" band never makes it big because they think they'll lose their specialness for liking them. It's pathetic. Fame of a song doesn't change a damn thing. You really think "The Sound of Silence" is ruined because its famous? What fame does do is give the artist a shot at making a comfortable living, and being able to keep making music without wondering if the next album will be their last because they can't afford to keep losing money making albums when hardly anyone buys them anymore.
All while having a say in what the artists make. They sure as hell won't do that for someone who doesn't toe the line, or suggest something they don't like. And for 16HP that would certainly include doing away with all the religious content that makes David who he is.
And why's that? Sure, I love this song and band as well as Wovenhand. But why SHOULD it be more famous. Should people think like you or should this band be artificially pumped up through millions of dollars like the shit bands that are? Or do you just say that because you want the world to reflect your ego?
I saw them live in LA @ The Troubador in '96 but didn't know anything about them. They opened with "I Seen What I Saw" and they blew everyone in the audience away. 3 guys on stage with some crazy instruments, some even homemade by the band; they were completely mesmerizing and hypnotic. The entire audience was captivated and it felt like we were in some 1920's deep southern church revival tent. His voice still gives me goosebumps - that combined with powerful biblical references and superior musicianship made this one of the best shows I have ever seen live. Still a huge fan today!
Exact same experience for me I saw them in Louisville Kentucky at the Palace theater opening for Bob Weir's band rat dog I think it was 1998 but I don't really remember what year it was but it was the same exact thing they opened up and it was like what the hell is this this is badass. And I happen to have a friend who is the head of audio at the Palace theater and he made up sound board recording of the whole show and so I got to enjo🎉y it long after and I'm still listening to it these guys are awesome.
16 horsepower was one of the most misunderstood bands of the 90s. Definitely one of the most talented musicians of our time. I started using a violin bow on my guitar after seeing David do it in one of his songs.
Man, I just spent some time knocking back the pints of Imperial Stout while cranking up The Gun Club, some live stuff from them when Patricia was playing bass.... I did a search on The Gun Club for tshirts and I came across 16 horsepower !! My life is changed forever. Much blessings and love..... Big George and Loki the dog xoxo
Music is a gift from God.. I like Johnny Cash- his cover of nin's Hurt gets me everytime I hear it. Tool, Metallica, Silversun Pickups, rank at the top of the list. 16horsepower and Wovenhand are my favorites- my son told me about them, what's it been 10 years ago now..somethin like that.. no matter, time as we know it is messed up.. I've been reading Job again, and I recognized several phrases sung by Mr Edwards- they literally popped off the pages 😛.. Isaiah and the Psalms are referred to alot too! This song hits the nail on the head.. what these 2 bands have given us is convicting and comforting.. I am very grateful.🕊️🤍
I love metal, and if it wasn't for Devildriver, I would never have heard this wonderful piece of music. I always thought the Black Soul Choir from Devildriver was the coolest song ever, now I like this version better. 16HP all the way!
Lots of great bands like this that transcend those genre barriers. There's an Auto Club song called "Jesus is in My Body" that is like something Marilyn Manson wishes he could put out.
This is amazing. Lyrics: No man ever seen the face of his foe no He ain't made of flesh and bone He's the one who sits up close beside you And when he's there you are alone Every man is evil yes and every man's a liar Unashamed with the wicked tongues sing In the black soul choir Every man is evil yes and every man's a liar Unashamed with the wicked tongue The black soul choir Oh, he rises in my way Oh, he rises in my way No man ever seen the face of my Lord no Not since he left his skin He's the one you keep cold on the outside girl He's at your door let him in Every man is evil yes and every man's a liar Unashamed with the wicked tongues sing In the black soul choir Every man is evil yes and every man's a liar Unashamed with the wicked tongue The black soul choir Oh, he rises in my way Oh, he rises in my way I will forgive your wrongs, I am able For my own I feel great shame I will offer up a brick to the back of your head boy If I was Cain
I'm so grateful for my wonderful sisters who helped me cultivate my music taste. I haven't listened this song for so long but 16HP music was always some sort of inner musical lighthouse for me through out all these years
One of my favorite bands , I love the simplicity at the core of this bands genius. One of the few Christian band i can say i love. The core principles of good and evil might elude some but this band let's you know right from wrong when it comes to doing this right . The other reason I like them is simple , they are the embodiment of old timey . Like rev. Glass eye and the wooden legs , real old timey like this is in it's own music genre OLD TIMEY 🙂👌
There is no reason why this man should not be the next Johnny Cash. One of my favorite songs by this group. It's uniquely American. It's something, like jazz, or blues, or really good country..we won't love it until it's too late..that is our tragedy as a country.
This song drive me. So true: we're all liars, we're all corrupted. We have to fight everyday to rise from dirts. Those which try to be superior and slay evil with purification are the worst of all.
This was one of the most played songs on dutch radio Kink Fm, Holland's most alternative radiostation which got cut off the air after his number 1 dj Arjen Grolleman died. So sad and therefore unforgetable Erik Geurten

@KoenHead I was the same..16hp is my favorite band of all time, but I think DEE is genius so I made myself listen to Woven hand and now, I think all of it is just as brilliant, just a bit different, less backwoods twang (which I miss!) and more worldly...it really is amazing, going to see Woven hand in chicago in sept..I cannot wait!

No, fame does nothing for great songs, it just ruins them.

I saw them in Mpls. Minnesota in 96 too. Everyone in the room was in a trance from their hypnotic music .
How tho? They were big around 2006,2007,2008,2009. Even when I doscovered them a few years ago I had already heard the songs back then somehow.
LOVE that! I’m in Finland so I can only imagine... would love to see them play!

Thanks for existing 16HP💜
This dude is cool, he can occupy that rare little place where stuff like Johnny Cash, rockabilly and metal all meet.
There's a bit of an 80's goth element I think, a bit Sisters
@@TheZippyMarkFields of the Nephilim even. He does cite The Gun Club and Joy Division as influences for what it's worth.

Gothic Country? Some of the best use of traditional American instrumentation I've heard.
Gothic Country -- PERFECT!
anythings possible lol
I love gothic county 🖤🖤
Check out The Builders and the Butchers too.
Saw this amazing band some years ago in Paard, The Hague ❤
I will NEVER forget sitting there minding my own business and this video coming on...
20 years later this shit is badass
Now it's 25 years. I'm old.
Im sitting by a fire on a river drinking beers and this band popped in my head. Gooden shit my people. Theyve been in my heart for 12ish years
i was at this coffee shop last might and i was bouncin in my chair yesterday jammin to it..good song
16 horsepower is so perfectly different . Love it.
I'm all metal but I have always loved this song.
I've sung this as a lullaby for my son (5 now) and when he' was crying.
I would sing it to this day, if he want. But he doesn't. 😅
highlight of my failure as a musician. supporting this band back in the 90's. They were great . we were crap. they are great.
+Joe Monkey I opened for them too. Had a great backstage session. Hope they have a good life going on now
As they ARE great, I'll trust yr taste & honesty.

believe it or not but the bridge city sinners "pussy" song brought me here lmao
Takes me back to the 90s , still sounds amazing.
This is amazing. Lyrics:
No man ever seen the face of his foe no
He ain't made of flesh and bone
He's the one who sits up close beside you
And when he's there you are alone
Every man is evil yes and every man's a liar
Unashamed with the wicked tongues sing
In the black soul choir
Every man is evil yes and every man's a liar
Unashamed with the wicked tongue
The black soul choir
Oh, he rises in my way
Oh, he rises in my way
No man ever seen the face of my Lord no
Not since he left his skin
He's the one you keep cold on the outside girl
He's at your door let him in
Every man is evil yes and every man's a liar
Unashamed with the wicked tongues sing
In the black soul choir
Every man is evil yes and every man's a liar
Unashamed with the wicked tongue
The black soul choir
Oh, he rises in my way
Oh, he rises in my way
I will forgive your wrongs, I am able
For my own I feel great shame
I will offer up a brick to the back of your head boy
If I was Cain
My first song ever heard from 16hp. Still a fan 👍🏻
How on Earth did my younger fake atheist self not connect this to Jesus Christ?
Literal horrifying truth. Except in the Light of the Blood of the Cross.
I'm pretty sure its he rises my way. Nonetheless.
Also its i am Abel. Thus the cain and abel line.
Love, love, love this song. It's from 1996, but I discovered it last month. Well, better late, than not at all!
I am a 50's Disabled Vet. I was homeless for much of this bands time and never heard this until today. It is fantastic!
welcome back and god bless
Thank You Sir.
God Bless you and thank you for your service
You are welcome sir.
my humble admiration for your scrifices
New fan, sorry I'm so late to the party.
His dad is a preacher. So is he. Some of the best tunes ever! I’m not religious.
Found this by accident...now every Bar in my Town PlayS it
A Class Act. Shame they disbanded. Even better live! Saw them in mid 90's in Seattle. Send exactly like this live..... Sad to lose!!!

ειναι υπεροχο.. κατι κανει μεσα σου αυτη η μουσικη, δεν την ακους απλα, σου ανακατευει ολη τη ψυχη...
So true . When I saw them live in the 90s I had chills the whole show.
Absolutely Fabulous. How can you NOT dance to this!!!
Discovered this band just recently. This song is in heavy rotation now.
J’adore depuis 1996 ,, , woven hand également , on groupe préféré ’bravo David ’’ c’est génial ❤
i worship them!!!!their music is so freaky!!!!....
The band that got me into playing Banjo 🪕
Fricken Brilliant song and playing. Totally underestimated band. Even better live.... Saw them back in Seattle in the mid 90's
The favourite music of Panos Kokkinopoulos, Greek TV director. He uses these songs as soundtracks in his mystery TV series.
One of the best albums of the 90s.
The 90s best era for most genres
97 At Enningdalen in Norway. I Have Followed Them Since. From Dag
Still remember when this was released. Love you David Eugene ❤️

It has more views than citizens in my country :)
Greetings from Montenegro!

Here's a punk and black metal fan chiming in. I'm with you, dude. These guys are great.
I hear you brother
I'm a punk and metal fan too and love these guys!
Punk, metal, folk, rockabilly... if it's great music, I'm there.
wish there was modern equivalent. these mfers are forever 1 off doing their thing
Well, my friend once called them Dissection with banjos😂
This was one of the most played songs on dutch radio

Its pretty awesome the DevilDriver covered this. They did an amazing job. Nice to see 16 Horsepower getting the recognition they deserve.
Saw them in Chicago around 95 or 96. They opened for Morphine.
WoW!! Never thought I would love banjo playing so much. This really kicks ass!! He plays it so.....I am lost for words, truly!!!!!
Only commenting on this so you get the notification to revisit this
He also plays the accordion and seeing them live was incredible!
First 16H song I ever heard and that was it!!!! I was SOLD!!! Never gets old. This tune comes on and I get so excited! Thanks for the righteous tunes!
Same. Nearly 17 years ago I've heard it for the first time.
Saw them live in Houston back around 2000 or so ... Eugene was like a man possessed. Unforgettable.
So good ! Tons of love and respect, from france.
You have to understand the true debths of genius to appreciate this song
This song never gets old. Love it!
This is on my list of top favorites of all genres. Thank you to the band for creating and sharing this amazing work.

It’s a shame I did not hear this until 28 years later. Sanction.
I LOVE THIS!!!!! I MEAN LIKE I LOVE IT WITH MY WHOLE ENTIRE SINNER SOUL!!!
Only took me 24 years to find these guys.🤔
Apparently I loved a sheltered life even at 24.🤷🏼♂️
If you haven't already, be sure to check out Swedish Purse by this band's current name Wovenhand. And many other good titles..
this is amazing. never heard anything like this before.

🍀🍃🌻Yeah right!! hell yolo yeah in the nane of the native , indian amerciabs!?

Loving Metal doesn't stop you from enjoying other styles as well.
Look at that bassist go!
Intense. Great vocals & musicianship. This is the stuff of playlists. Big like in 2020.
found these albums in my local library. Rochester NY for the win
One of my top fav. bands..been to the woven hand concert in Skopje-Macedonia..outstanding..!!!
The best part of Devildriver's Beast album is that I discovered this amazing band.
Bro, I wound up here the same way
David Eugene Edwards is a music genius..

I will forgive your wrongs, I am able

might be the best experience ever...this is creepy beyond words...the song itself is great....the video takes it beyond...
Where have you boys been? How is it I just hear your amazing songs now?! So original- love it!
I think I saw them about 3 times. I am an atheist but I love the whole vibe, Woven hand too.
Though you don't believe it, Yeshua loves you. Says something about your spirit and character that you can appreciate this music. Peace and blessings to you.
This song brought a whole new world to me. I'm atheist too.
I mean I can FEEL his love to God. This is great.

Listen to Dee's version of the Outlaw song, based on a Hungarian folksong. It's addictive. Can't get enough of it.
I KNOW RIGHT?!
this band has dominated my stereo more than any metal band this couple of days
this guy is unique
Back in 2021!!! And it still resonates!!
in a perfect world, 16 horsepower would be household, yes they're that great and then some.
i think these are one of the best lyrics i EVER read.
and i listen to a LOT of music :D
Saw them several times back in Denver when they were together...great live band.
Badass gentleman .
Maybe Rotterdam this summer? I thought I heard a little bird... Fan for sure, love
@KoenHead I was the same..16hp is my favorite band of all time, but I think DEE is genius so I made myself listen to Woven hand and now, I think all of it is just as brilliant, just a bit different, less backwoods twang (which I miss!) and more worldly...it really is amazing, going to see Woven hand in chicago in sept..I cannot wait!
I saw them at the Roskilde Festival in Denmark, in 96 I believe. They opened the show with this one. Fantastic band!
Short but wild ride in my past ... thanks man, I almost forgot this gem
I used to love it so bad 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
1 of 100 My favorite song of 16HP. Greeks drink, melancholy, and continue with 16 horsepower,wovenhand &DEE.
dark, gloomy...beautiful!
