There are some really great bands out there. Unfortunately corporate radio will not play them. I’m gonna give you ten of them right here. In no order and the first of many Blogs like this, I will be bringing you new bands that I feel should be heard around the world. Let’s get it on!:

Stark imagery, eclectic lyrics, brilliant musicianship give this band credibility. A VOD show will not leave your mind readily. When you’re in, you’re in for good.

10. Texas Hippie Coalition
http://www.facebook.com/texashippiecoalition
When you throw THC in the CD player you automatically get a little more baddass. I feel like somebody poured a bottle of Jack out on the Texas ground and these guys sprouted out of it.
“Troublesome Times” : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wy33nprcFxU
Just the first ten bands I want to bring to the attention of the WORLD!!! Many more to come. I am not afraid to spread the word about bands I love. They’ll get played right here!
the Hellion.

Thanks for the great support and comments on our bands.
I can’t understand the whole Texas Hippie Coalition obsession. It is just another annoying Pantera soundalike that continues to plague the rock world.
understand, difference of opinion makes us stronger!
Pantera soundalike? They dont sound anything like pantera. BDR certainly doesnt sound like Phil and yes Coop plays a Dean but he doesnt sound like Dime. If THC does anything its pay their respects to Pantera and Dime (Coope has two dimes on the head of his guitar one 1966 for Dimes birth and one 2004 for his death)
Like janaya64 said…difference of opinion…its all good. imagine how much music would suck if it ALL sounded the same.
We dig THC for their fearlessness and brotherhood. They are huge BLS fams and preach the gospel of Dime. They even wore their BLS vests on stage in the early days. They are huge supporters of Ride For Dime and play as many events as their schedule will allow. Theyre really just a bunch of ‘good ole boys’ trying to make their mark in the world of metal! #BandOfOutlaws #RedDirtMetal #GetchaFuckinPull
Sunset Riot is a Rock Band that gives 100% plus every time they perform. These boys play with so much enthusiasm, it’s like an “Explosion”. Every show of theirs is Pure ENERGY… the way they relate to their audience is truly magic. What you see is what you get, they are the real deal. Gotta love the boys from Sunset Riot.
