Ammotrack from Skövde/Sweden. Has an combination of heaviness, really cool melodies and stone-hard rock n' roll attitude.
Ammotrack had a fabulous year under 2008 with thier debut album that climbed high on the charts. Nominations as the years breakthrough on Bandit Rock Awards, nominations for the years new arrivers and the years hard-rock on Swedish Metal Awards and gigs on Arvikafestivalen, Sweden Rock Festival, Monsters Of Mora, and the band has toured a lot and has been the supporting act for bands such as Hardcore Superstar and D-A-D, both in Sweden and Europe. So 2009 will probably be even a great year.
Todays tune is a song called S.H.O.U.T from thier debut album "Ammotrack"
Wanted to share some Mustang Sally with u guys, took that Sally from the movie with the same name as the group, Andrew Strong is playing "Deco" and also sings on this tune.
Nothing more to say really just sit back, put up ure feets and enjoy!!
More D-A-D, as promised i will deliver a classic one, i could say that this is the biggest tune they have "Hit list Vise" Its a great tune indeed.
And i was lucky to have some time over to get a few shots during that night. Its with my pocket camera so not the best quality.
Stig's bass guitars only have two strings, some even only one string. Stig designs his own bass guitars based on his own ideas and imagination. I really like the rocket one, its so far out as it can be.
And yes the band closed their live performance with the song It's After Dark. As they usally do. And yes, D-A-D is in very good shape and sounds great live so dont miss them.
D-A-D is a Danish rock band previously known as Disneyland After Dark, a name that had to be changed after a threatening lawsuit from The Walt Disney Company. Their style of music is often categorized as melodic heavy rock. They have also used the names D.A.D., D•A•D and D:A:D, each name represents a period in the band's history.
Today D-A-D had a gig @ klubben/Stockholm, Sweden together with Ammotrack (More with them in a few days) D-A-D are a bunch of nice guys and the crew was the same so i would say that i really enjoyed working with them. So why not kick out the new title track from the 10th studio album from one of Denmarks most popular and persistent rock bands. that is also the name off the tour they are doing, Monster Philosophy. Tomorrow i will give you a classic with some nice shots that i was able to get, haven't gone thru them yet.

Grayson Capps video for his song "New Orleans Waltz" from the album, Wail & Ride
"Take the poetry of Texas troubadour Townes Van Zandt, combine with Steve Earle’s edgy attitude and then stir it up with a little cup of bayou blues, à la Howlin’ Wolf, and you get a taste of Capps’ scrumptious gothic gumbo." - Exclaim

...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead (often abbreviated as Trail of Dead) is an American art rock band from Austin, Texas. According to the band's website, their name is taken from an ancient Mayan ritual chant which shows a striking similarity to an ancient Egyptian chant. However, this explanation is said to be merely an ongoing joke. The chief creative elements of the band are Jason Reece and Conrad Keely. The two switch between drumming and lead vocals and guitar, both on their records and during their shows. (On some songs, former bass player Neil Busch sang lead vocals). As of February 2009, the band has released six studio albums. Their sixth album, The Century of Self, was released on February 17, 2009.
