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.
@@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?
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
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
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.🕊️🤍
saw these guys in denver in 1996 and it caused me to buy the album, it definitely had a huge impact on the future of my music taste although not something I could convince anyone else of... even if I played it.
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
1997 in Roskilde, my first concert that year. He sat on a barstool that seemed to be two meters high. Only a few hundred attending, if I remember correctly, it was in the middle of the day. But what an experience it was in that little tent.
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.
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 Every man is evil, yes, and every man's a liar Unashamed with the wicked tongues Sing in the black soul choir Oh, he rises my way
@@AlexandraVioletta - Likewise, although in spite of the religious imagery, I don't consider 16 Horsepower to be a "Christian" band. As with good gospel, Edwards doesn't pander, and the end result transcends the subject matter.
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 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.
Four hooves, and four horses, forthcoming. My understanding grows by the percussion, and I become aware slowly, but surely. The tale of hammerings to a great band, entrust me with what was already my own. Woe, and behold the confusions of man, and god alike, wherein the narrow foothold between was ignorant, and tired of such. -Adonis DeQuerton
I had a very cool NY/ NJ style record store in eastern KY for 10 years. A huge fan of 16 Horsepower turned me on to them and the singers solo work. I have three albums from them. The pie- plates on the back cover is so scary. If I wandered onto someone’s property and saw that shit?......,,, I would be gone in a flash. I don’t wanna know what it means and I’m not sticking around to find out...,,,, feet’s don’t fail me now🏅
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 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
I am watching your video under the cherry blossom tree, the fragrant spring wind brushing my cheeks. Watching your video when the petals are blowing in the spring wind, it's so beautiful that it's so beautiful like a dazzling flower. Even in a dazzling morning. The scent of the afternoon. Even the black night sky. I am very happy that I have found all the joy in the world in my dreaming excitement because of meeting your wonderful video on UA-cam channel. Thinking of how hard and hard it must have been to make this precious and valuable video, I give you abundant happiness and sincere support. I hope that you will continue to make as many good videos as you do now. Thank you for the algorithm that introduced your videos out of the many videos that pop up on UA-cam like grains of sand on the beach. It was introduced by an algorithm on my phone's UA-cam window and I'm watching your video right now, but on a cloudy day like today, your charming video is so good and really amazing. The atmosphere of my space changes as if I can wash away my stuffy heart here with one of your videos. I was amazed at the excellence of your skills and was moved by your sincerity and hard work while watching the video. I'm looking at your video like a dream. Thank you to Algorithm for introducing a video of you that can make you drenched in happiness after a long time. I sincerely hope that your videos will grow a lot by riding the lucky algorithm in the wide and wide UA-cam world where there is no end.
@Atskathea and the fact you can tell the difference from looks, or maybe sound, is amazing... i could probably see them both in person and have no idea what the difference is
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 tongue 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 girlie 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 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
This song makes me think I am in a trench waiting for Russians to come to be shot, but while we wait my grandfather is telling me stories and he's not lying shot in the snow yet.
Makes me think a lot of some random obscure cult that worships a certain Eldritch diety and they disguise themselves as something like Pentacostals/Baptists. That whole Silent Hill/Lovecraft atmosphere is extremely prevalent in Southern Gothic culture.
This is uncanny, how can I have never heard of this band ever before lest this song? Song and vid could have easily be produced last year as well. Must be a bug in the matrix that's the _only_ possible explanation... ;D
What? Lol. I thought this song was about athesim and the creation of religion by man: "every man is evil, every man is a liar" wicked tounges and all that. I'll stick with that interpretation, or it'll ruin a great song.
Ain't none ever seen the face of his foe no He ain't made of flesh & bone He's the one who sits up close beside you An when he's there you are alone Every man is evil yes an every man a liar An unashamed with the wicked tongues sing In the black soul choir Yes an 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 O I will forgive your wrongs Yes I am able An for my own I feel great shame If I were Cain

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!
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!
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.
This song should be much more famous than it is. Such a great song.
No, fame does nothing for great songs, it just ruins them.

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
i was at this coffee shop last might and i was bouncin in my chair yesterday jammin to it..good song
25 years ago this song changed my world!
Thanks for existing 16HP💜
I will NEVER forget sitting there minding my own business and this video coming on...
New fan, sorry I'm so late to the party.
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.
that's cool
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
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.
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. 😅
J’adore depuis 1996 ,, , woven hand également , on groupe préféré ’bravo David ’’ c’est génial ❤
Seeing these guys live was one of the best concerts that I ever attended. They sound exactly like their albums

His dad is a preacher. So is he. Some of the best tunes ever! I’m not religious.
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.
Love, love, love this song. It's from 1996, but I discovered it last month. Well, better late, than not at all!
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!!!
97 At Enningdalen in Norway. I Have Followed Them Since. From Dag
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.
Found this by accident...now every Bar in my Town PlayS it
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 ❤
one of my favourite bands ever. had the honour of supporting them once.will never forget that night!
Absolutely Fabulous. How can you NOT dance to this!!!

20 years later this shit is badass
Now it's 25 years. I'm old.
Timeless
16 horsepower is so perfectly different . Love it.
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

Still remember when this was released. Love you David Eugene ❤️
Takes me back to the 90s , still sounds amazing.
Fricken Brilliant song and playing. Totally underestimated band. Even better live.... Saw them back in Seattle in the mid 90's
I used to listen to them when nobody in my country ever heard of them. 16 horsepower MNE!!
I'm all metal but I have always loved this song.
Discovered this band just recently. This song is in heavy rotation now.
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
Every man is evil, yes, and every man's a liar
Unashamed with the wicked tongues
Sing in the black soul choir
Oh, he rises my way
Saw them live in Houston back around 2000 or so ... Eugene was like a man possessed. Unforgettable.
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..
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.
The favourite music of Panos Kokkinopoulos, Greek TV director. He uses these songs as soundtracks in his mystery TV series.
I don't even like country, but 16 Horsepower has to be one of my most favorite bands.
Same here. And I'm atheist 🤣👍🏻

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.
The Hake Report brought be here.
believe it or not but the bridge city sinners "pussy" song brought me here lmao
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😂
Intense. Great vocals & musicianship. This is the stuff of playlists. Big like in 2020.
Never get tired of this song
Saw them in Chicago around 95 or 96. They opened for Morphine.
So good ! Tons of love and respect, from france.
This is on my list of top favorites of all genres. Thank you to the band for creating and sharing this amazing work.
probably one of my all time favorite albums....my last copy was stolen by someone I briefly dated
I just found this !
Metal has gone down the toilet this is the new order!
It’s a shame I did not hear this until 28 years later. Sanction.
I just listened to this recently and am hooked.
found these albums in my local library. Rochester NY for the win
I saw them in Höxter, in Germany, on the Orange Blossom Special Festival... it was one of the best Gigs i saw ...
Saw them several times back in Denver when they were together...great live band.
Maybe Rotterdam this summer? I thought I heard a little bird... Fan for sure, love
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.
One of the best albums of the 90s.
The 90s best era for most genres
You have to understand the true debths of genius to appreciate this song

Short but wild ride in my past ... thanks man, I almost forgot this gem

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.
Where have you boys been? How is it I just hear your amazing songs now?! So original- love it!
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

ποσο χαιρομαι που υπαρχει κ τ youtube κ μ βοηθαει ν ξετρυπωνω τετοια συγκροτηματα
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!
Holy Moly - this group was recommended via another video - I am SOOOO glad they did!
This song never gets old. Love it!
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
Its pretty awesome the DevilDriver covered this. They did an amazing job. Nice to see 16 Horsepower getting the recognition they deserve.
The band that got me into playing Banjo 🪕
Τέλειο κομμάτι!!!!
Κόκκινος Κύκλος...;-)
Lately I have been telling every metalhead I know about this band at any chance I get - this is somehow so extremely metal without being metal

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 KNOW RIGHT?!
this band has dominated my stereo more than any metal band this couple of days
Check out 'Hiss,' the first track released from Wovenhands upcoming album, 'Refractory Obdurate' 4-29-2014.
This music makes me feel like some early 20s appalachian miner ready to fight against government forces in a strike. Amazing stuff.
This song makes me think I am in a trench waiting for Russians to come to be shot, but while we wait my grandfather is telling me stories and he's not lying shot in the snow yet.
Makes me think a lot of some random obscure cult that worships a certain Eldritch diety and they disguise themselves as something like Pentacostals/Baptists. That whole Silent Hill/Lovecraft atmosphere is extremely prevalent in Southern Gothic culture.
dark, gloomy...beautiful!
I LOVE THIS!!!!! I MEAN LIKE I LOVE IT WITH MY WHOLE ENTIRE SINNER SOUL!!!
Got to see these guys open for Morphine in a smallish venue in Boulder in 1996(?), both bands tore it up.
This is uncanny, how can I have never heard of this band ever before lest this song? Song and vid could have easily be produced last year as well. Must be a bug in the matrix that's the _only_ possible explanation... ;D
It's music and lyrics like this that makes an old hardcore atheist soften at the knees
Amen, Brother.
agnostic and melting at these words
I call bullshit.
What? Lol. I thought this song was about athesim and the creation of religion by man: "every man is evil, every man is a liar" wicked tounges and all that. I'll stick with that interpretation, or it'll ruin a great song.
I'm the furthest thing from religious than you can be, but there's no harm in appreciating the beauty and art that religion inspires.
Saw these guys open for the Innocence Mission around 1995, was an instant fan
EXCELLENT song!!!
I saw them at the Roskilde Festival in Denmark, in 96 I believe. They opened the show with this one. Fantastic band!
the love of my life showed me this song, and even tho i fcuked up and destroyed any chance, atleast she gave me something great that i can listen too
David Eugene Edwards is a music genius..
Ain't none ever seen the face of his foe no
He ain't made of flesh & bone
He's the one who sits up close beside you
An when he's there you are alone
Every man is evil yes an every man a liar
An unashamed with the wicked tongues sing
In the black soul choir
Yes an 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
O I will forgive your wrongs
Yes I am able
An for my own I feel great shame
If I were Cain
Great song. Great band!!!
