Puddle Of Mudd -

The first signings to Fred 'Limp Bizkit' Durst's label ('Flawless') after impressing him with a demo, and it's easy to see why. PoM's guitar work is both melodic and mighty, a tsunami of tunefully crashing chords which prove sleazily infectious. Sometimes EMO at it's most poignant ('Blurry'), at others irrepressibly tongue-in-cheek ('She F*ckin' Hates Me'), the band pair a refreshing rawness with total professionalism. They will be huge!
