So, in theory, everyone “hates” Creed these days. Well…I don’t. I was never a huge fan, but I will give credit where credit is due. Creed was a good rock band made up of talented musicians and songwriters. The way I figure it, they deserve to be recognized.
Creed — “My Own Prison,” from the album My Own Prison (1997).
I had forgotten how much I liked this album until a couple of months ago, when I randomly decided to listen to it for the first time in years. Lol.
Stonefeather actually asked to be featured on my blog via Instagram. I wasted little time in checking out their latest video for the song “Ride On.” I was immediately in love.
Hailing from California, it is no surprise that Stonefeather employs an eclectic mix of rock, funk, and the blues. The tracks “Ride On” and “Electrify” showcase their classic rock influences, which include Cream, Jimi Hendrix, and Led Zeppelin, while songs like “Crack Cocaine,” “Kush Doctor,” and “What U Want” pay tribute to more current artists such as Rage Against the Machine and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Stonefeather is definitely one of my new favorites. I highly recommend that you find the time to listen to them. Below are my top three Stonefeather tracks.
Kush Doctor
Ride On
Electrify
1. Disturbed: “Land of Confusion” (Genesis cover)
2. Mötley Crüe: “Smokin’ in the Boys Room” (Brownsville Station cover)
3. Slash ft. Myles Kennedy: “Sweet Child O’ Mine” (Guns ‘N’ Roses cover)
I told y’all Alter Bridge would show up more than once! Lol. I love these guys, and lately I have been obsessed with the song “Words Darker Than Their Wings” from AB III.
The Cure — “Just Like Heaven,” from the album Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me (1987).
You can’t have a week dedicated to love and not include H.I.M.
HIM — “Heaven Tonight,” from the album Razorblade Romance (2000).
1. Super bob: “Sexy and I Know It” (LMFAO cover)
I love this video!
2. Aerosmith: “Come Together” (The Beatles cover)
Not a huge fan of this version, actually, but hey… It’s still a good song.
3. Five Finger Death Punch: “Bad Company” (Bad Company cover)
Stealing Eden was another of my Twitter discoveries. I believe they followed me first. I followed back, then they had a contest of sorts on Instagram, so I began following them there as well.
Any band that I come across on Twitter or IG, I give a chance. It took me a bit to get around to listening to Stealing Eden, and I regret that because they are really great. A mix of Breaking Benjamin and Daughtry, the vocals are melodic while the lyrics are meaningful and the music itself leans more towards hard rock.
Don’t take my word for it, though. Check Stealing Eden out for yourself. Here are my three favorite tracks.
