...then listen to The Films.
Actually, just listen to them anyways, because these guys are phenomenal. From South Carolina, these guys take southern rock grit and attitude and fuse it with a western flare. They have been at it since 2003 now, releasing two EP's and a full length LP _Don't Dance Rattlesnake_, which was not released in the US until late September of this year. I remember the painful days staring at the only copy of the LP I could find anywhere: the foreign import on Amazon, which would have cost me something like $40-50 dollars after shipping and handling. I patiently waited for the much cheaper US release.
I wish I could just throw the whole album at you because it's so good. Torn by which song to share, I decided to choose one that can't be streamed on their myspace or purevolume sites. Their Youtube video for "Black Shoes" is fun, as well. These guys are NOT well-known yet!! So be like me and jump on the "I'm so cool because I knew them first" bandwagon before they do get big... because I bet they will.

A pretty decent sound. They are now firmly planted on my radar.

Glad you liked. They just came back from a european tour, and I'm not sure when they plan on starting up a US tour again, but they are on my list of "must-see" bands.
