Music
editIn an interview with Decibel magazine, Walker said "It's really not that original of an idea when you consider that Mike Ness has already done a country-hybrid album. But I don't think anyone from a background like mine has done it, and done it with a bit of respect — not turning it into a piss take."[7]
