Music reviews. CD reviews. Critically hip!

I guess we can tell which part of the forum is going to get the least amout of attention. I don't know why, but you have to really like country music to listen to it. Other genres really aren't like that. For example, I'm not a jazz fan, but I listen to it all of the time (well, on second thought, I guess that would make me a jazz fan, but you get the point).

If country music is so geograpically isolated, then why is it always included in mainstream music (you know, pop/rock/rap/country, or whatever)? If you've ever been to the West Coast, then you know that country stations are few and far between on the radio.

I was just wondering about others' views on this topic...

When you think of modern day southern rocknroll, the band that's gonna come to everyone's mind is the State Line Mob.Their blues-southern rock line-up is a southern outlaw sound & image that's hard to forget. The band was formed in 2007 by duo vocalists/songwriters Phillip Crunk and Dana Crunk.State Line Mob has released their new debut album "Ruckus" to the world, & it has left many saying they will have the best album of 2008, and could have the best Southern Rock album since Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Street Survivors" way back in 1977.To S.L.M., thats great compliments to have been given to them!With the cd only being released just a few weeks ago,folks have been purchasing Ruckus off the internet shelves of cdbaby & their statelinemob.com website steady since announced & have sold copies here in the U.S.A.,Germany & France.Dana replies,people that have listened to our songs & have heard us perform have told us that State Line Mob music is exactly what radio has been missing for some time now.Well,we agree!The Industry is sometimes confused with what they want & what the people want!
Phillip & Dana Crunk write all of their own music & lyrics with the exception of some help from their producer at Severe Records from time to time they say.We enjoy writing music & anytime we can collaborate with any like minded songwriters,we just think its great, say the duo singers!We have a great band lined up & look forward to stormin out & making a huge impact in the industry while reaching out to our fans.
The band's southern rock /country outlaw sound is similar to their influences of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bad Company and 38 Special's, updated for this decade & era.But make no mistake,Phillip & Dana Crunk take pride with saying they are original & really just sound like themselves.Being ourselves & being real to who we are & to the fans, is what seperates us from other singers & bands, Phillip & Dana say.We both come from a family background of musicians & have both been playing music & singing all our lives.Alot of our music actually starts as demos written from the piano,Phillip says.We both play piano & I started out playing drums in various bands growing up.
Leaders Phillip Crunk and Dana Crunk trade off on vocals and sing for you southern harmony. With "Ruckus," they have established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in American music.
