That is some cool stuff going on! Personally I'd go with funk.

Hard to do funk with two "voices" and a kit, three "voices", since the air and interplay between "voices" defines funk. But there is some interplay, NICE interplay in fact!

Its defintely rock-based, tonalities, pulse etc. funk overtones....

too bad y'all "have to "pigenohole" it.

Quote: " Son, that sure aint cuntry!"

PS Your playing seems spot on man, keep growing it, and most importantly....KEEP MAKING MUSIC!!!!!!

Nice stuff!

hey guys i wana thank everyone who took the time to listen, Hopefully some more will weigh in with their thoughts...

bassically our biggest dillemma is trying to market ourselves for gigs and people dont respond well to the no vocalist thought of a group and we got tossed into that "jam Band" category and lots of people turn their noses up.. we have many songs with defined sections and parts, and as we do enjoy to jam out.. its really not exactly the focus of our performances as we like to carry on through an adventure of riffs almost like a rollercoaster if you will.

any thoughts on how to market ourselves to be better recieved?
