i really didn't expect to like these guys for some reason, but i dug that song.
they sound a lot like the white stripes and the gossip and that's alright by me!

i've been a big fan of they might be giants for a long time now, and they just simply never get old. i prefer their earlier stuff, but "istanbul" is still a total classic.

^That song's great. The Misfits with Danzig were and are a great and amazing thing. Without him. . .not so much.

That genre isn't my thing, but even knowing as little about it as I do, the music sounded pretty generic for the most part. So was the video...slow-mo shots of individual crowd-members being affected by the music? Definitely haven't seen THAT before in a nu-metal video.
HOWEVER, I like that guy's voice quite a bit. It's fairly unique, and would sound great with something a little more bluesy.

EDIT: hold on, reviewed wrong video!

Okay, this southern rock thing. Whatever this is. I really do not like it, personally and find it a bit boring. Then again most of that 70s rock sound can be distasteful for me. Heres some power metal to rate:
