Ever since Hammerlock's formation in the mid-䀘90s, reviewers have been finding interesting ways to describe the power trio's southern-friend sound. Hammerlock has been called everything from a punk version of Lynyrd Skynyrd to a redneck metal band, and the outfit definitely has a distinctive, fresh-sounding way of fusing alternative metal, southern rock and punk. Bringing a wide variety of influences to the table, Hammerlock could be described as a raucous, forceful, in-your-face blend of Motörhead, Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Outlaws and Black Flag--an unlikely combination, but one that works amazingly well, and one that has earned the threesome a small yet extremely loyal and enthusiastic cult following.
