Power Ballad by Shawn Coleman

the song "power Ballad" by shawn coleman, is an original composition made for the adult swim television show, "squid billies" in the episode where rusty cuyler sells his soul to the devil to gain the power to shred the guitar, "as well as banjo, drums, base, and a multitude of other instruments" all at the same time, early realizes that rusty's playing bests his own, and so, early fears that his position as male leader of the family will be stolen by rusty, so he first tries sending the reverend into the house to kill rusty, and this is where the power ballad is first heard, after the reverend goes inside, he walks out wearing a rock 'n' roll t shirt, and is apparently high. early then takes matters into his own tentacles and challenges squid satan to a guitar off, squid plays his own composition called "hoof prints" during which he pummels rusty while singing, early simply begins strumming one chord, he starts going faster until he's strumming too fast to see, al we hear is a high pitched whistle, early smiles , and slows down, he then plays a short bluesy/spanish tune, most of the first timer viewing audience are stunned at early's superb playing... but it is soon found out that early sold his soul to the devil to play guitar. at the end we see early and rusty sitting in the house playing guitar and banjo... they have been turned into demons. with the ending credits we hear power ballad playing us out instead of the usual guitar/base slap.
