www.myspace.com/halestormThe official first single off of Halestorm's long anticipated debut album from Atlantic Records. I remember these guys from back in '05...these guys though have existed as a band since at least 1999. They started as teenagers and they FINALLY have made it to the big time. Well deserved. Hopefully this hits top 10 on Active.

I remember when these guys toured with Shinedown, Seether, and Flyleaf on SnoCore. I was really looking forward to hearing from them. That was back on 06, I believe.

I saw them open for 30 Seconds To Mars and Seether in '05 and they weren't all that exciting, although they were easily the second best band on the bill. What I remember most is that their drummer can really tenderize.
The chick predictably came out for Amy Lee's parts on "Broken" and held her own.

What I remember most is that their drummer can really tenderize. I was gonna use dialogue from the haunted house episode of Ren & Stimpy where the yak is pummeling his sandwich against the refrigerator (oblivious to the ghost inside of it), but all the set up to explain the scene was just not worth it, merely to refer back to the word "tenderize." (I even looked it up on YouTube and one was the episode in German and the other was the episode sped way up.) |

The album is actually out already. Even though the official release date is April 28th, if you're willing to fork over $10, you can buy the standard edition and get the songs right away.
I had to get the deluxe edition which includes three B-sides, the T-shirt, and the physical album on the official release date.
Bad ass album. Aside from I Get Off, It's Not You, Innocence, Familiar Taste of Poison, Love/Hate Heartbreak, Dirty Work, Nothing to Do With Love, and Dirty Mind (from the deluxe tracks) are all really good.
I'm excited because I've been waiting to hear something from these guys since at least early '06.

So, is it just me or is every song about her being a slut?

April 13th is the add date.
Musically this album is great but lyrically she's like a female Hinder.

Bet U Wish You Had Me Back sounds very Kelly Clarkson. I wouldn't be all that surprised if that's the next single.

I kept expecting them to sound like Flyleaf since they were on the SnoCore tour like you said, but it's not even a comparison. Damn that reminds me, I wish Flyleaf would finish up their new album already. It's been too long. |

Yikes! This is formulaic cock rock!
The kids may not be old enough to remember all that '80's cheese, but I do, dammit.
Pass.
