Guitar World call the track &#8220;country-metal thunder&#8221;. Speaking about the song, John 5 says;\u00a0\u201c<em>This one of my favorite songs I\u2019ve tracked recently.\u00a0It\u2019s got electric mandolin, banjo, and a ton of guitar on it, and the main guitar, bass, and drum parts were tracked entirely live, so I think it has a great feel to it. I think it\u2019s the perfect mixture of heavy rock and crazy country<\/em>.\u201d And talking about th video production, John explains;\u00a0&#8220;<em>We filmed it in a warehouse right next to Jonny&#8217;s place. It was swelteringly hot in there that day, but we got through it, and if anything, the heat contributed to the energy in the video.\u00a0The star-shaped stage with all the neon lights is actually Elton John&#8217;s piano riser,&#8221; continues 5. &#8220;It turns out you can rent it. Who knew?
