There is a live set looming around from Xfm or Kerrang... it was incredible... gonna have a look for it

Halestorm is pretty good.

You should check out Losing September. They are from Indiana and have a similar sound to Halestorm. Only better in my view. Losing September is one of the few bands that i know of that actually has a voice and is starting a revolution.

Is this really what you think? You think they drag down the band? Everyone's entitled to their opinion, but there are several bands (Halestorm not least among them) that have female leads that are more metal than a lot of the major bands today. Landmine Marathon and Sister Sin are excellent bands, along with Tarja-era Nightwish and Within Temptation. Before you dis them all, try to look around more.

I love Halestorm! I'm not sure why people compare Lzzy Hale to Joan Jett, though-the two sound nothing alike. A lot of their songs are somewhat "raunchy", but I love them and their "rauchiness"

Halestorm is amazing, Lizzy Hales voice is so strong and dominant, I just saw them for the first time when they were touring with The Carnival Of Madness tour, and it was amazing, I've been a fan for years.

I only heard of Halestorm fairly recently, but I have to say I'm impressed with the whole
band--good to see some decent hard rock songwriting and playing!

LOVE this band - maintstream or not. Loved everything they have put out and am excited to see them in November.

I miss the misery, drove to AZ from here (1051 miles) and xm played it about 40 times which I was ok with. :bowdown:

Yeah mainstream but they really own imo, but its really rock and not metal. But I dont agree that girl singers drag bands down. In This Moment and Leaves' Eyes are still awesome and so is Lacuna Coil. I really like Halestorm and I hope they keep dropping albums for a long time.
