Sounds Like
Stripped down, raw, straightahead rock 'n roll. Don't know how much we sound like the these bands, but the following are influential to the sound, groove, and spirit of Sweet Crude: Aerosmith (before they sobered up), Guns and Roses (before Axl ruined them), The Cult (Electric era), Buckcherry (their non-sucking stuff), 3 Doors Down (the good stuff), and then the bastard love child that would result from a disturbing union between Lenny Kravitz, ZZ Top, AC/DC, early Van Halen, and a motley assortment hard-rockin' attitude-driven bands that we've forgotten to mention.
Then you take all that, put it in a blender and push "Texas-ify." We take all these influences, filter out any crap, and inject a heapin' helpin' of Texas redneck backwoods inbred hillbilly savoir-faire. Finally, we pour this toxic mash into our well-hidden backcountry still and create the finest rock 'n roll ever produced by mere mortals. Enjoy, you lucky bastards!
Red dirt rock, hillbilly jams, redneck backwoods inbred savoir-faire, or whatever you want to call it, Sweet Texas Crude is a toxic mash of the dirtiest rock n’ roll attitude this side of the Pecos.
It's been compared to ZZ Top meets AC/DC and it seems that Mike, Ryan, Kenn and Derik bring out the best in the finest of influences proudly claiming their stake in the history books of Great Texas Music with an attitude.
