It is possible to be “scared of nothin’ and … scared to death” at the same, at least so says Luke Combs, who holds his own bellowing about the virtues of the Sooner State over a torrent of wind and rain in the video for his new song, “Ain’t No Love in Oklahoma.” The song comes off the upcoming soundtrack to Twisters, the 28-years-late sequel to Twister (and grammarians will note that Combs’ double-negative suggests there is love in Oklahoma, even if it’s a North Carolinian turned Nashvillian singing his heart out.)

“Ain’t no love in Oklahoma, just the whistle of a long black train,” Combs sings. You’ll know when it’s comin’ for ya, ridin’ in on the wind and rain.” The video makes it seem as if Combs is the only thing riding in on wind and rain — his breakout country hit was titled “Hurricane” after all. NASCAR driver John Hunter Nemechek makes a special appearance in the clip, too. Combs posted a series of behind-the-scenes pics to his Instagram.

The rest of the track list for the compilation soundtrack album, which comes out July 19, features Miranda Lambert singing about Kansas, Lainey Wilson singing about Oklahoma again, and songs about country music and cowgirls and dead-end roads. Featured artists include Thomas Rhett, Jelly Roll, Kane Brown, Shania Twain, and Kane Brown, but it’s the artists from the red-hot Red Dirt genre that make the Twisters soundtrack such an anticipated album: Wyatt Flores, Dylan Gossett, Flatland Cavalry, and Charley Crockett are all on the LP.

The movie, which stars Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glen Powell, and Anthony Ramos, among others, drops the same day as the soundtrack. Actors Brandon Perea, Maura Tierney, and Sasha Lane also feature in the film, which Lee Isaac Chung (Minari) directed.
