 | | Listening back today, Blind Melon is definitely one of the more pure sounding rock records of the early 90s modeled more after Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Allman Brothers, rather than the usual suspects that all the grunge and industrial bands were studying at the time. |
 | | The grind of the road (Blind Melon toured for nearly two years solid) merged with the groups sudden success proved to be a dangerous cocktail, as Hoon indulged in his drug of choice, cocaine. |
 | | Blind Melon opens for the likes of Neil Young, Soundgarden, Ozzy Osbourne, Lenny Kravitz, and Guns N Roses, in addition to their own headlining tour of clubs, throughout late 1992 and early 1994. |
