The wild horse. We romanticize this magnificent creature, and rightly so. We marvel at the horse that dares to run free through mountain streams and mountain s**t, forging his own path, blazing his own trails. We know he spends his downtime whinnying in delight that he is never going to spend his life partially encased in leather, trotting slowly with his head hanging down as he carries a field trip of suburban fourth graders who crack themselves up whenever he sports an uncontrollable erection. The wild horse gets hard whenever he wants. And nobody laughs. And he loves that about himself.
The American male needs to feel like a wild horse from time to time, and Electric Six is a band from Detroit comprised of six American males. The American male, upon birth, is issued three Wild Horse Cards from the United States Department of Agriculture, and he can play these cards at any point in his life when he needs to feel like a wild horse for a year. This is the year that all six members of Electric Six have elected to play their cards at the same time, and the result is the band s ninth studio album, Mustang.
