Death is too good for their level of medocacy.

Dude. You guys are awesome! So much energy, so much enthusiasm! And I really like your marketing-oriented stage show. Holding up a band t-shirt during your guitar player's intro solo at The Whiskey was a stroke of pure genius and class.

I'm not so sure about your name, though. Maybe you ought to consider something edgier, like .38 Hatchet or Tuckerfoot or something?

Anyways, keep rawkin' the rawk!

What's with the pic? It looks like Great White dressed up as Suicidal Tendencies for Halloween.

If you'd like to enlist Sherry Globman's services for future band pictures she could really take your image to the next level.

For the record (and I have played this string before), as the intended AUDIENCE, I do think that those of us who are not performers have EVERY right to voice an opinion. Lack of musical talent is only relevant if one positions oneself as a musician; for those of us who position ourselves as the audience, musical talent is completely irrelevant.

I've made this comparison a thousand times before but if the troll's logic held up, few people would be "allowed" to talk during sporting events, since most of the commentary would be by people who can't throw a pass, dunk a ball, hit a fastball, etc.

The people who say "Let's hear your shit!!!!" just wanted praise and weren't at all prepared for criticism. I think that's unbelievably childish and they should be beaten with shoes.

Did this get moved or did these guys actually post their thread in Hatas?

Hell yeah we posted in Hatas, We figured were getting so much bad raps on the other page, we figured why not try here!!! LOVE US OR HATE US at least you KNOW US! STONEBREED

How exactly will this help your band?

Yet not one thing you've said in any of the boards you've spammed has made your music sound compelling enough to give it a listen.

"Some guy in Iowa heard of my shitty bar band! Maybe he'll come to our show in Bakersfield!"

Their MySpace page looks like fucking K-Mart.

I will NEVER book this band for fear that they would natter on until I drank bleach out of desperation.

HOB Hollywood
I’ve seen Steel Panther (previously Metal Skool) here and there throughout the years, but had not seen them since they made their latest venue switch from the Key Club to the House of Blues. When I found out that Stonebreed was opening the show 04/12/10, I couldn’t miss this opportunity to see them perform live for the first time. I “found” Stonebreed online a while back and instantly fell in love with them. They are hard rock with a southern edge, and sing about really important topics like whiskey and women.

The band had an unlimited guest list for this show, and they definitely did their dirty work to get fans there. When I got to HOB, there was a long line of fans waiting to get their free tickets, and all around me I heard people talking about how great Stonebreed is. Once I was inside, it seemed pretty full for an “opening band.” People usually don’t get to a Steel Panther show until much later.

This was no opening band though. This was STONEBREED! Listening to them on my little computer speakers didn’t come close to the raw energy and power of a live show!

They hit the stage hard with an original song called “Rattlesnake” and the whole crowd was rockin’. They kept the momentum going strong with cover song “Train, Train,” (Blackfoot) which everyone knew and sang along with. I recognized the next song, “Miss Me,” from their website, and it was great to see them perform this heartfelt ballad live. “I’m Gone” was the perfect follow-up song. It started out slow, with soothing vocals, and then exploded into blistering leads and a riff heavy chorus.

Just when things started to slow down, they picked it right back up again with another well-known cover song, Pat Traver’s “Snortin’ Whiskey.” They shared a couple more originals, “Back Home” and the ballsy “Whiskey Well,” and then ended with a cover song that really surprised me… Def Leppard’s “Let it Go!” Aside from Def Leppard tribute bands, and of course Def Leppard, I’ve never heard anyone else perform this song live. It definitely “rocked” and “rolled.” The only disappointment I had was that Stonebreed’s set ended so soon. I was pumped up and ready to rock, and then it was over…

Originally Mandy Lion was supposed to perform next. I’m not sure why, but someone named Ronnie North was listed to play instead. I got excited when I saw that Ronnie had purple hair and was wearing torn-up Lip Service pants. I was hoping for some glam/punk like The Zeros or The Mistakes. Instead, after two long instrumental pieces, he finally approached the microphone, but not to sing… And he NEVER did. They were good. The music was beautiful and melodic. But, it just didn’t fit in the middle of a rock concert.

The place was pretty packed for Steel Panther. For those of you who don’t know, Steel Panther is an 80’s rock-n-roll tribute, full of spoofs, sex, and fun. I needed to head out early, and saw just a handful of their crazy antics. They were onstage rolling out their usual shtick of big hair, make-up, and spandex, and were playing Warrant’s “Cherry Pie” as six scantily clad female fans danced onstage. Since I live and breathe rock-n-roll daily, I’d rather not make a parody of it with kids in mullet wigs, just to look at half naked chicks on stage. I can see that anywhere. The half naked chicks that is! lol.

The bottom line is: Stonebreed put on a rock-solid show.

Great philosophy. This guy approves.

songs sound pretty good, though maybe a little generic/unoriginal sounding

ur band name is unoriginal though

sounds like u took stone sour and hatebreed and made stonebreed

They can't get any decent chicks to model their merch, so they Microsoft Paint the image onto some poor unsuspecting blondes.




Nor can they afford to actually print a shirt.




Or a baseball cap.



Or a beanie.



Or... ?







Yes. Stonebreed produces motorcy..erm "motercycles" and sells them as band merch.

Whoa. Guess you sure showed us! I checked out "Metal Babe" Alison's other reviews (http://allaccessmagazine.com/author/alison/).

Jesus Christ. She's fucking brutal! I can't believe you guys got such a positive review from her. Normally, she eviscerates bands, bringing to light their lack of originality, lackluster musicianship and ridiculous stage show antics. It's obvious that she knows her stuff when it comes to musical talent. And journalistic talent? Bitch has a way with words!

And you know what? I find that refreshing. Why, you ask? Well, I'll TELL you. So often you find these "butter face" girls that are desperate to hang out with totally awesome rock stars, but they just don't have looks or personality to do it on a personal level, so they invent these little webzines and "companies" that gives them an excuse to go back stage and get their pictures taken with musicians at every cheese-ass show that rolls through town. I'll bet they even get their fields plowed from time to time!

Finding a woman in music journalism with the integrity of Metal Babe Alison gives me faith in music and women simultaneously. I mean, just her name alone says "I'm serious about what I do."

And to think. I owe it all to .38 Hatchet!

My point is STILL valid; while you may get some press in freebie mags that no one takes very seriously, NOTHING you have posted here has been even slightly entertaining enough to make your music seem compelling.

"As I was walking up to the club, I actually heard some cool sounding punk, but couldn’t tell who it was or where it was coming from. It turns out, it was a Misfits tribute band called 13SK8. They really made me want to go listen to the Misfits. But not until I saw the Gabba Gabba Heys!"

Well, the Gabba Gabba Heys ARE pretty good. Not that that twatwaffle would know the difference.

Yes. That sentence totally checks out for me as well.

Thoughts? Shitty cover band is what I'm thinking.

That is really not how Hatas works.
