Kinda Country is an album released by Eerie Von in 2009 on Ghastly Records. [1] It is Eerie Von's fifth album since he left the metal band Danzig. The album is notable for being the first by Eerie Von not to fit into the rock genre, instead featuring a dark country-style sound. The choice of album title was inspired by this fact. [2] Eerie Von first began writing songs from Kinda Country as far back as 1996. [3] As these songs didn't fit in with his gothic rock sound, they remained unrecorded until enough tracks where available for an entire album. [3] Several songs, including "Please Don't Wake Me", "Lonely Me" and "Stop Getting Over You", are about Eerie Von's past relationships. [3]
All songs written, produced and performed by Eerie Von.

Feelin Kinda Free is the sixth studio album from Australian band The Drones, and their final one before going on hiatus.

Its genre-defying musical style has been described as visceral and ominous, featuring a relative absence of guitars and a prominent use of electronic textures. Its sessions also marked the first appearance of drummer Christian Strybosch since 2005's Wait Long by the River and the Bodies of Your Enemies Will Float By.
