We need your help to get us there. Please spend a minute and Vote for us Southern OKlahoma Boys!!!!!! We need votes, so we were wondering if you could help.

Re: New Southern Rock Band


I'll try not to be Simon Cowell-like. I do like southern hard rock. My opinion of what I heard from your myspace page is......I think you guys would benefit greatly from a better produced recording. The levels are off which makes it hard to listen to. I think vocals need to go down a notch and bring the rhythm guitars up more. I believe it's the guitars that give a song a "southern" feel more than anything else so they should be highlighted better. Your screaming style vocals work for hard rock but are too prominent in the 2 songs I listened to.
I'll vote for you guys cuz everyone deserves a chance. If you make it through, good luck and that way if things don't work out, at least you had the chance. Stick with it (and find a new producer!). Who knows, if you guys get in, maybe I'll come watch ya. Bushnell, IL is about 2 hours away!
BTW, my favorite southern rock band is Grady:
http://www.myspace.com/gradyaustin

ok, so I just saw you said it's a raw recording....whew! Not so bad then!

Its good...I didn't see a place to vote.

Re: New Southern Rock Band


I clicked on your myspace page, but I think someone hacked it. Your music was substituted by some angry sounding boys hollering into the microphone.

They're still pissed that they lost the Civil War and have to pick their own damn watermelons....

Hey, ever wonder how Yankees would be acting if they were the losers? Instead of white sheets, the Yanks would be wearing plaid woolies....

Re: New Southern Rock Band


Sounds like a cross between Skynryd on the guitars and Powerman 5000 on the vocals, (Southern Rock mixed with Hard Rock lyrics).

I voted for ya but I do think that mdshunk is on to something. A little too much yelling for southern rock.

That band photo has a very "deliverance-y" vibe to it.If I was hiking through the woods and ran into that group of fellas, I would NOT be asking for directions.

Re: New Southern Rock Band


We are #51 right now and it seems we are leveling out, we are just running out of family and friends to vote for us........

Every vote counts it really really does, so thanks to the troopers who have pulled through so far, but we need more votes so spend a few measly minutes and go vote for a fellow tradesman!!!!

in return i will personally call you and tell you thanks.
