When does that ever happen?

Yea, if they've already been accepted by the GLEE crowd, they're part of the machine now. They'd be stupid to go edgier. No money in that.

Yeah I don't think the GLEE crowd cares about this band.

According to MetalRob331...

Someone there must be a fan. Wether the fans of the show pick up on it or not, my point was that the band has gotten some recognition in the mainstream media. The odds of them going more "edgy" on future releases is questionable at best.

I give em props for doing "slave to the grind"

my youngest offspring who is in the military, digs em alot. Thinks it's due to the singer chick looking like this girl I caught him groping in his momma's car a few years ago ?

Just picked up THe Strange Case....a while back. I must admit, I love this album. It's catchy. It's hard enough, and the girl can sing. What else do I need?

I agree. Solid album.

Their digital-only covers EP is worth checking out, too. Their cover of "Out Ta Get Me" came on the other night and remember thinking, Damn, this girl has a bad-ass voice!

Too many ballads in the middle, which bogs the record down. The hard rockers are good.

The ballads sound good if you listen to them individually, but several in a row is a bit much.

Bump for new ep update...

Quote :: Atlantic recording group HALESTORM has unveiled details of its new EP. "ReAniMate 2.0: The CoVeRs eP" will arrive on October 15.

The EP marks the acclaimed hard rock band's first new release since their stunning Grammy Awards triumph earlier this year, as well as the follow-up to 2011's "ReAniMate: The CoVeRs eP". As with its predecessor, "ReAniMate 2.0: The CoVeRs eP" sees HALESTORM putting their distinctive brand on a strikingly eclectic collection of classic songs, including legendary tracks by JUDAS PRIEST, AC/DC, PAT BENATAR, FLEETWOOD MAC, MARILYN MANSON, and DAFT PUNK.

"Like our first 'ReAniMate' EP, the songs included here are a collection of both our favorite songs and songs to challenge ourselves," said HALESTORM frontwoman Lzzy Hale. We decided to go more 'bare bones' with this EP, meaning minimal production with live, gritty performances. We recorded this EP the week of the Grammys, so the excitement and debauchery you hear through your speakers is very real. We hope all our fans have as much fun with 'ReAniMate: 2.0' as we did!"

"ReAniMate 2.0: The CoVeRs eP" track listing:

01. Dissident Aggressor (originally performed by JUDAS PRIEST)
02. Get Lucky (originally performed by DAFT PUNK)
03. Shoot To Thrill (originally performed by AC/DC)
04. Hell Is For Children (originally performed by PAT BENATAR)
05. Gold Dust Woman (originally performed by FLEETWOOD MAC)
06. 1996 (originally performed by MARILYN MANSON)

Some interesting choices.

Wanna see some poorly recorded cell phone video sampling? Of course you do..
