Default Drive-by Truckers

I seem to be the only one around here that touts these guys heavily, but I don't think I should be. Honestly if you guys checked them out, you'd probably like them. Good, strait foreward rock thats well aware of the genres roots with a strong pretelection toward Southern Rock.

Im going to list a few songs. If you could do me a favor and listen to at least 5, then review the three you liked best. Also they released a new album recently which I have yet to pick up. If you own it or have heard it, please give me a review.

List: (I rated them to help, or to try to)
Sinkhole: 5
Hell No I Ai't Happy: 4
Outift: 4.5
Ronnie and Neil: 3
Guitar Man Upstairs: 3
The Three Great Alabama Icons (not a song but an amazing track just the same): 5
Let There Be Rock: 3
Where the Devil Won't Stay: 4.5
The Day John Henry Died: 4
Carl perkins Cadillac: 3.5
Danko/Manuel: 4

www.google.com


it is an amazing thing, you type something in and it gives you websites that has stuff about what you typed in. Now go use it. Big3 I've heard a couple of tracks by them before and have liked them. *is off to find more*

Yeah tell me what you think of them. I honestly think if people heard them they'd like them. Sinkhole and Devil Won't Stay especially since their close enough to popular genres. The other can be poppy or alternative/indie.

Yes I like them quite a bit, I just checked them out now. Where the Devil Won't Stay is pretty easy listening rock.

I googled yes, and I got nothing on Paula Abdul and if you searched for drive-by truckers you'd get this.

The bands website. I'm listening to Outfit, its okay, not exactly my cup of tea.

Heres a link with four songs for everyone else who hasn't heard 'em.

Tornadoes is one of my favorites

I also bought the "Live at the 40 Watt" DVD, it is excellent

Also check out "The Night GG Allin Came To Town"
