    Cattle Core may well have a future as a metal subgenre, but Hank3 may want to shoot for an EP or a single next time rather than filling up a whole CD as he does on Cattle Callin.

    It almost works. [Nov 2011, p.84]

    Simply crazed speedcore played over actual cattle auctions. [Jan. 2012, p. 120]

    The result certainly stays true to Hank3's legacy of audacity, especially in "Mad Cow," which drones on for 10 minutes. But actually listening to the thing? Pretty torturous.

    Even a cursory listen to the album is enough to push the listener into a music-induced coma, and not in a good way. It falls so flat that he should just give Cattle Callin' away for free.

    Hank 3 may be one of the most creative recording artists in music today, but Cattle Callin proves that not all of his ideas are good ones.
