The emotive piano and acoustic guitar of “Possum” evoke the later half of Coldplay’s [u]Rush of Blood to the Head[/u] - the crisp jangle against the smooth piano evokes “A Rush of Blood to the Head” and “Warning Sign.” “Drywater” is a Blind Melon, Counting Crows-esque tune that yearns to be included in early 90s radio.

Defining Indie as the new mainstream, Dallas based “BadEnders” is starting a new movement. Listen to Daniel Hall, Will Rakkar, Christopher Robinson,and Guyton Sanders make music, then ask yourself,
“When is the last time I heard songs like this.” -Mavizon.com
Who would’ve thought that sophisticated British indie-pop could come from Texas? These dudes prove that notion is a true one. Songs such as “Masquerade” will have you partying like its 1999 all over again, while “Drywater” and “Cold Feet” will fit nicely on a mixed CD designed for hot steamy action in the front seat of your Volkswagen Jetta," -Shane Epting HARDER BEAT
This four-piece out of Dallas, Texas, could be enjoyed by fans of such bands as The Appleseed Cast, Copeland, or Radiohead. The vocals are spacey and can become ethereal when harmonized...." -Eric Pettersson INDIE VISION MUSIC
hey! when is it again? can you give me all the info? i have like nothing to do, been so bored, so if i can make it, which i probably can, then i cant wait to see yall there. :]
You guys played a flatulence free performance last night especially given the practice time and things(pertaining to the next to the last band). I'm not saying this to blow smoke up your...okay I'll stop with the constant mentions of bodily movements. All the best lads.
oh, wow. well, just think- if he had stayed, still feeling the way he feels about it now, he wouldnt put forth the effort and willingness he would need to make the band a success. so it would have just brought everyone down. and yeah, it IS his life, and he should be able to do what he wants with it. but you know things like that happen in a band, you just have to find the right people who want it bad enough. i hope y'all are proud of him and arent making it any harder because i'm sure he doesnt hate and despise yall, it just wasnt the best thing for him or in his best intrest, like he said. so i thinkif he felt that way then it was the best thing for everyone. and if i knew how to play i would join in a hreartbeat, lol. :]
On behalf of the 'four' of us yesterday thanks for the add and Will for the shirt. I wish you all the best and hope to see you guys again soon. Take care.
P.S. don't let those middle 'emo breaks' get you down.
haha wow! thats insane! geez! lol. i say something about y'all every day, and tell all my friends to go to "the badenders" profile and check out the music. if they like it, they spread the love. X]] <3
