This Oklahoma City band has been playing for a while, since 2002 to be exact. There is five of them (u know- the old, vocals, lead guitar, rhythm guitar, bass, drums), just recently their first debut album was released on “Universal Records” and up until now it’s doin’ just fine… They are Hinder!

Their first single out of their album was titled “Get Stoned” and though parents out their probably don’t appreciate the title, I personally really love the song. However! The second single “Lips of an Angel” is the really amazing one…

The song is really powerful…the rock…the pop… the acoustic guitars.. it’s gr8. The funny thing about the band is that through all the years they have had a problem of their main genre. I mean a band that is self-described as “Hard Rock, Pop Metal, Glam Metal, Post-Grunge” can cause a few dilemmas along the way.

But fuck that, I don’t really care what they are supposed to be called, they’re a good rocking out band and if u dint hear of them till now u better check ‘em out cause their crazy guitar riffs and powerful vocals will really get you hooked (worked on me).

Their whole album is just magnificent. It is titled “Extreme Behavior” and was released about a year ago really…but who cares…this music sticks with you. So back to our song “Lips of an Angel”: it has really been the band’s breakthrough single… I mean it got to number 9 on the “Billboard Hot 100″ and to number 5 on the “U.S. Hot Digital Songs”. PLUS, it got to number 38 in the “U.S. Hot Ringtones” list. (bet you didn’t know there was such a list…)

And that brings me to the ringtone… Yeah, it’s ok. But not A-OK! I think they could’ve done a better job on this one. It’s a real powerful song which could have been brought out more with the bass and the rhythm. I would give this ringtone 6 TONY’S. I wish I could have given more but it has let me down… (Note to band and ringtone composers: pls put out more awesome songs and make better ringtones!) The songs deserve it.
