Just picked up some stuff by these guys, listened to this track first.
Holy shit!
These guys fucking rock, but they have that little extra something floating around too. It's hard to explain. According to their website, they aren't doing anything this summer yet either, really.
Good fucking group.

    Incredible Band
    AWESOME LIVE SHOW

    One of my favorite bands at the moment. Their live shows remind me of early 90's Pearl Jam shows they have so much energy.

    best band not name Pearl Jam...awesome emotion in their music, which is generally lacking in most bands these days. Plus they can kick out some sweet jams. To me they are similar band to PJ, not in terms of sound (they sound nothing like PJ), but in terms of energy and emotion. No Pearl Jam fan should deny themselves checking out this band.

    All this talk about how great they are live makes me want to see them .
    Anyone who knows if they're going to launch a Europe tour soon since I'm only 15 years old and I don't really think my parents will let me travel to the US by myself :)

    Well anyway i downloaded the louisville show and it's awesome, What A Wonderful Man is so good I can't really express my feelings in words.

    Peace

    ok, the rumors about them opening for pearl jam and some of the reviews ive read have really peaked my interest in these guys. plus, i want some new music. any recommendations on where to start?

    im digging into drive by truckers too but i think these guys sound more up my alley. im not THAT into the skynyrd hard rock thing.

    Good to hear that.
    Check out their live set from Bonnaroo 2004...you can find an audience recording on archive.org I think. There also is an official soundboard recoding too.

    Drive-By has a ton of stuff on archive.org as well. I like them a lot. Don't think Skynrd...

    OK, I hear that. I'd go with "It Still Moves" first...that one's got some good tracks... Mahgeeta and One Big Holiday especially.

    MMJ is a great band! Really original sound. Saw them on Austin City Limits a week or so ago and it was great. They are playing at this years Bonnaroo as well along with RADIOHEAD, my wife and I have already purchased our tickets to it. I mean Radiohead, Tom Petty, and My Morning Jacket are worth the price of the tickets alone!!

    It still moves has some great songs like: golden, run thru, one big holiday, mahgeetah, and others.

    also their newest "Z" has some good songs also not as hard rockin as one big holiday and run thru but good solid stuff.

    There other albums are good to but i don't think they are as good a place to start. None of their albums really "HIT" me immediately, but with a few listens i have grown to love them. A LOT!

    There live shows are incrediable.
