Tornado Rider is... well, it's hard to describe. Bluegrass, metal, Psychobilly, they all apply. But you got to love them. Enjoy Bison Land!



Next week, grab the comforter, your Snugglie, and that old Army blanket, because Covers Month begins! We'll start with an ABBA tune.

Nope, not kidding. ABBA.

are you at all familiar with a finnish group called the Leningrad Cowboys?

they might be more punk then metal, but they are more than a little warped.

they did a tour with a russian military ensemble that was called "The Nokia Total Balalaika Tour" they cover everything from Sweet Home Alabama to Pretty Fly for a White Guy
along with backing up on Volga Boatman

or would these guys be more of a hair band?

I love the Cowboys. They are certainly more alt/punk than metal. Andyeah, definitely a hair band. :)
