What a great band. They're as much a part of Texas as oil.

Almost lol, but Texans are very inspired by our own alternative rock scene, I think. Butthole Surfers, Pantera, Mars Volta are all really influential groups. Toadies.

There is something very unique about Texan music. Those cats you mentioned, Townes van Zandt, Roy Orbison, The Geto Boys, DRI, countless weird punk bands, plus all of the early blues/country/folk artists who probably fostered newer artists sense of adventure
