Album Review: "Rebel Meets Rebel" (2006)
Released earlier this month, this project came together as a collaboration between country singer David Allan Coe and the guys from heavy metal group Pantera from 1999-2003. Suffice it to say that it's a grinding yet tuneful fusion of two of the greatest music genres of all time, and the only way I can describe it is as a Metallica-cized version of the otherwise inimitable White Cowbell Oklahoma. And I gotta say, upon hearing the album's opening chords, one man immediately came to mind for some reason - this guy.
With titles like "One Night Stands" and "Cowboys Do More Dope", "Rebel Meets Rebel" is a can't miss effort that should be the soundtrack to roadtrips all summer long.
Totally randy.
Overall rating: 8.5/10

Any thoughts on the $400 rebates that Albertans are receiving with more on the way? Shouldn't all Canadians benefit from this?
Just so happens that they have some oil in their backyard. Share the wealth.
I can see both sides of the issue, but there are a couple of things to keep in mind which would explain why the feds won't make a move on this ... first, some say that under the Constitution, responsibility for natural resources lies (primarily, but not fully) with the provinces, and second, if money was taken out of Albertans' pockets to redistribute to Ontario, Quebec and the Atlantic provinces, we'd see a Reform Party resurrection faster than you can say "national energy program". It would be political suicide for Harper to touch this one.
