Very retro and very poppy but....I really like it! Check out these guys on MP3. http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/477/blanny.html Am I crazy or is this just wierd enough to be cool?
Sometimes they remind me of Ugly Kid Joe. The last song started out badly, but grew more interesting as it went along. I don't have good sound on my humble speakers, but was that a tapped bass solo near the end of that song? By the way, is the guy in the flannel plaid shirt the ex-singer of Candlebox? While at MP3.com, I tried out their featured metal artist Frail. I kind of liked them. Back in my heavy metal days I might even have bought their CD.
These dudes invoked some of the classic rock greats...a dash of Ramones, a dash of Led Zep, 2 or 3 dashes of Black Sabbath. Pretty cool.
Great phrase (LOL!). Kinda like something we all go through to overcome the awkardness of puberty, but hopefully outgrow. I havent quite outgrown my HMP (heavy metal phase) yet. Hmmmm, I wonder if I ever will?
