marijuana for 20 dollars apiece, known as dub sacks. On "Damn Bitch," Blaze and guests The Dayton Family praise the beauty and physical features of their female Juggalette fanbase. "Monster Inside" reveals the inner turmoil of a man while his sinister inner beast awaits to break free of its mortal shell. The song incorporates guitars in a way that Kik Axe Music reviewer James Zahn says "recalls early Cypress Hill". In "Party," Blaze and guest Anybody Killa speak about drinking, smoking, and constant partying without any worry of the consequences. The song "Lights Out" describes what life would be like if the sun never rose. Surrounded by total darkness, panic would arise, people would grow pale and cold, and "the moon would be the new sun." Release and promotion The album's title was revealed by Psychopathic Records in December 2009. In promotion of the album, Bruce claimed that Gang Rags "will make a milestone in the career of the Dead Man, no doubt. This is the one. This is the album." The album's release was preceded with a nationwide in-store tour beginning in June, and followed by a 10-day tour. Gang Rags was released in five variant editions, each with its own colored bandana. Each colored bandana represented a fictional gang referenced in the album's lyrics: Red Rage (red), Redemption Ride (white), Zombie King (black), Dollar Domination (green) and Ice Cold Killers (blue). The first music video from the album, "Dead Man Walking", was released on January 7, 2011. The second music video from the album, "Dub Sack", was released on December 7, 2012. While on the 2011 Drive-By Tour, Blaze released Gang Rags Extended Version (Uncut + Uncensored), an alternate album recorded during the Gang Rag sessions. The tour-exclusive album features twelve songs originally recorded for Gang Rags. Gang Rags: Reborn, released October 21, 2014 on Majik Ninja Entertainment, derives from much of the same vocal sessions, but contains newly recorded, different music.
