Audio Mixer: Jason Elgin. Arranger: Adam Wright. Some of the gutsiest Southern rock of the '90s and 2000s was in the alternative metal realm. Bands like Alabama Thunderpussy, Hammerlock, Brand New Sin, and Backdraft have had no problem combining Southern rock and alt-metal, which is the combination that Maylene & the Sons of Disaster also favor. Classic Southern rock like Lynyrd Skynyrd and ZZ Top is a prominent influence on the band's third album, III, but then again so are Pantera and Corrosion of Conformity. Maylene was founded by singer Dallas Taylor, formerly of the Christian screamo/post-hardcore outfit Underoath. And even though III will never be mistaken for any of Underoath's albums, Taylor's in-your-face vocals nonetheless reflect his screamo/post-hardcore past. Headbangers who hold alternative metal and Southern rock in equally high regard will find III to be a consistently engaging listen.
