RED, white, and blue!

Haha, the bitches in Canada must be SOOO pissed at us right now....eh? We walk into their house and lay the smackdown on their mounty asses. If they weren't so passive I'd honestly expect some form of retaliation.

Anywho, a band that has been a long time favorite of mine is RED. They're a Christian rock hard rock band, and my oh my are they good. Utilizing strings to accompany their heavy sound, RED creates a sound entirely their own, and shows how good mainstream rock can be if its not diluted and repetitive (I'm talking to you Saving Abel, Theory of a Deadman, and Nickelback).

The lead singer Barnes' has a scream that gets you pumped, while he can also sing a slow ballad with so much emotion that you can feel it in your core. RED is easily just as good as 90% of the crap you hear on today's modern rock radio, all the while maintaining a very original sound that most haven't heard before.
