...played bass guitar for nearly 10 years before becoming a wrestler. What was the switch like? After watching wrestling for 20 years, I thought I had enough confidence to do it. There were no wrestling schools at the time. There were just six or seven huge 300- or 400-lb. wrestlers in a room, and to get in the business you had to take the livelihood away from one of them, take their place. So when I first went into the ring, they exercised me until I was ready to faint. And then they broke my leg. (See sports pictures...

...Moon Rising,” the album’s first single and standout track. A whirlwind of catchy guitar solos and pounding drums, it’s as fun to listen to as “Joker and the Thief” from their debut. Nearly 64th note bass drum and cymbal beats driving the entire track, it’s hard to keep up. Arpeggios of electric guitar fill a chorus of forceful, ominous lyrics: “She don’t mind / She got the time / I see the new moon rising...

...Followill brothers--Caleb (vocals, rhythm guitar), Nathan (drums) and Jared (bass)--were raised in a purple Oldsmobile driven by their father Leon, a traveling Pentecostal minister. Apparently they were good and pure Southern boys who abstained from all the fun stuff until 1997, when their parents divorced, Leon left the church, and the mostly homeschooled, God-fearing sons went tumbling into the temptations of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll. The group's first release, the EP Holy Roller Novocaine, came out in 2003, shortly after the brothers grabbed cousin Matthew (guitar) from Mississippi and everyone learned how to play...

...capable of songs that really do make them sound like savants. The best of these is "Taper Jean Girl," from 2005's Aha Shake Heartbreak. Caleb is mostly mumbling Dixie, but with a live-wire sexuality and unpredictability that recalls the young Mick Jagger. Meanwhile, there are a muscular bass, ferocious drums and a tremolo guitar flying around, generating a musical storm. The song taps into ancient urges and feels as if it were made up on the spot...
