Hinder

Song of the Day


Hinder
"How Long"


All too often people think of Hinder as a whimpy band because so many girls fell in love with "Lips of an Angel." This song is being posted to break you all of that thought. Hinder is a damn good band that accidentaly hindered themselves by putting out a quality song... who'da thunk it?

Unexpected Stylings

Song[s] of the Day

Today's Song[s] of the Day are rather unique for many reasons, but the one to focus on is that they are made of unexpected stylings. What does "unexpected stylings" mean? Simple: Take any band that you love - a band that carries a similar style throughout most of their songs - and then have them sing one song that just doesn't fit their normal repertoire at all. Still don't get it? Just listen to these songs and maybe you'll understand!

System of a Down
"Roulette"






Slipknot
"Vermillion, Pt. 2"






Limp Bizkit
"The One"






Breaking Benjamin
"Rain"






System of a Down
"Lonely Day"






Puddle of Mudd
"We Don't Have To Look Back Now"






Slipknot
"Snuff"

Foreigner

Song of the Day


Foreigner
"Juke Box Hero"


Yesterday's List Post (Guru's Picks - Top Umpteen Cover Songs) inspired me to post some more old-school music, so I did just that with this one. This song made its debut in 1981 on the album "4" and is still rockin' all these years later.
Enjoy.

The Guru's Picks - Top Umpteen Cover Songs

Top Umpteen Cover Songs

Here's a list of some great cover songs. It's quite a mix of genres and in no particular order. Enjoy.



Theory of a Deadman

Song of the Day


Theory of a Deadman
"Make Up Your Mind"


This is one of TOAD's first hits and is often forgotten about or it just flys under the radar. It's off their first album (self-titled, 2002) and has been one of the Guru's favorite songs since it hit the radio all those years ago.

Better yet ... buy the album!

Seeed

Song of the Day


Seeed
"What You Deserve Is What You Get"


Seeed is a German reggae/dancehall/hip-hop style band and their music, especially this song, is a whole lot of fun. The video is rather goofy, but turn it up nice and loud and enjoy the craziness that is Seeed.
