The singer has a strong voice. This band is obviously going for the big time
Slipknot territory and the like, Drowning Pool and such - PBS 106.7 FM Radio (Aus)
My speaker's don't normally oscillate at the low frequencies created
by Peyote Blind's 'Long Gone' - Modcast Radio (UK)
Call me dumb, but what does the name mean? I'm not going to waste time
looking it up; it's just a band name. - PBS 106.7 FM Radio (Aus)Peyote Blind's track - 'My Own' seems to take forever to launch into their sub-sonic quake. Modcast Radio (UK)My Own by Peyote Blind could very well be the long lost son of Nirvana's own You Know You're Right. It has similar rolling drum lines and dark, telling vocals but the difference is that the heavier moments on this track sound more like metal than grunge. - PBS 106.7 FM Radio (Aus)
