I've been into these guys for a while and I never see anyone else mention them. I tried pimpin' them over at the SD forum and no one made a peep. So either they really blow or no one really listened to the songs.

Anyway - these guys were around during the early 2000's but broke up a few years ago - - they put out a few CD's that can be tough to find. I got mine through Amazon.

Anyway - if you like some old timey 70's style hard rock - mixed with some Southern rock flavor, you might dig these guys. If you're like the preserved moose then this band could be for you. I don't know - I like 'em alot but I like lots of weird "new" stuff too so I can't predict... If short, hard rockin' tunes are you cup o' tea, give them a listen.

Some of these are official videos and some I made because the songs are hard to find online.

OH YEAH - since this is a guitar building site - the lead guitarist/singer Les Godfrey, builds his own instruments and they're pretty sweet - check it:

i like it! when the guy started singing on the first track i thought "oh no..." but that was pretty good. i like that some of the songs are short just because they are. i like that they don't feel obligated to meet a 2:30 or 3:00 long minimum
