Good Times, Good Music Fr: Alex posted in 2007.

(Thank you for the first graphic work in 2007 Alex!)

Through my dear friend Toni, I was introduced to this band. Now while I'm here in Myspace, I listen to them more than my regular player. So Ladies and Gentlemen, may I please introduce to you,

If you love the sound of a solid body guitar, in the style of Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, or Robin Trower, then give these guys a fair listen. But DON'T get them F**ked Up for somebody else. While they DO have that classic sort of Stratocaster kind of sound, they are innovators, not imitators. Their music is clean, and instrument driven, and not cluttered with a bunch of studio wizardry and hype. The classic sort of blues sound (with just a dash of that wonderful Rocking Texas Flava), is mixed into Good Time Rock and Roll, experimental musings, gentle music that falls upon your ears like a spring rain, and Kick Out The Jams no holds barred rockin'. They do some covers of some classic Hendrix tunes, and it would make Jimi proud. Any band can cover a song note for note, but these guys add their own freshness, and make it all their own. That's the mark of a great band.

They are just really getting up on the ladder of the music biz, and I for one think they will climb high. Personally, I would like to see a piece of their work in the unlockable section of Guitar Hero 3, due out this fall.

They have just finished recording a new album, not sure of a possible release date, check their page for updates. When it comes out, if you like what you hear, BUY (not download on Krapzaa or Crimewire) it to support these guys. They're great musicians, and they love their fans. They have 2 pages, therefore 2 players, so you can really sample and get a feel for what they're about. Click on the links below to go to their spaces and check 'em out!

	MEL	Unfortunately when you posted this blog I didn't have time (at work) to read it and ol' PS3 freak at home has had the net for a while hooked up to the machine. Mum mentioned this blog to me again last night so I decided that I'd come in and have a read first thing this morning. Great blog, and fanTASTIC that they responded, girlfriends and all! I've made an executive decision to go out at lunch and buy the cd. I repeat to you the question I asked mum last night..."How come I haven't heard of these bands, man?????" Posted by MEL on August 21, 2007 - Tuesday 3:05 PM [Reply to this]

	Alex	Men. They're all alike. There are lots of good bands out there, just got to find them. (It's why Myspace was orginally started) I just love the sound of a solid body guitar playin' some blues. The Killing Floor was that and much more, so I added them as a friend just to give them a good checking out. Turns out they are not only good musicians, but great folks as well, ya gotta love that. If you like some serious shredding, check out Alluminati. Also give Transera a listen. (Both in my friends) I'm finding so many good bands, there's a waiting list for listening!

	Megs	Sorry so long in the comment - you know I am nuts right now. : > ) Loved this blog. It was great. Made me go to their page and listen. And I typically don't like rock so to get me to go there was a big step. I love the sound and the only word I can find to describe it is 'clean.' It was nice, Anyway - loved the part you wrote "The classic sort of blues sound (with just a dash of that wonderful Rocking Texas Flava), is mixed into Good Time Rock and Roll, experimental musings, gentle music that falls upon your ears like a spring rain, and Kick Out The Jams no holds barred rockin'." God you are a beautiful writer. If I can work things like that into my writing I will be a NY Times best seller in no time. As always - it may take me a bit - but I always find time to catch up to you because you make me smile. Loves Posted by Megs on August 23, 2007 - Thursday 7:03 PM [Reply to this]
