Hellyeah Purposely Broke Party Stereotype On Blood For Blood
. (TeamRock Radio) Hellyeah guitarist Tom Maxwell says the band made a conscious decision to drop their party-rock tag on Blood For Blood. Their fourth album launched last year with bassist Kyle Sanders admitting they had a lot to prove following the departures of Bob 'Zilla' Kakaha and Greg Tribbett. Now Maxwell says they used the album to ditch some stereotypes surrounding the group. He tells the Vinnie Langdon Show: "I think we really needed to dig deep on this one. I wanted to break that stereotype people had of us as this party-rock band, which kind of put us in a corner with songs like Alcohaulin' Ass, Drink Drank Drunk and Hell Of A Time. "They're cool tunes, but, personally, I don't have any history with that kind of music. I'm a hardcore kid from Baltimore and I want to play moody, emotional, heavy stuff and more relaxed, pulled-back stuff but retaining integrity and honesty. I just didn't think that that was the way that we should be going." Read more here. TeamRock Radio is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
