20/20 Blind

20/20 Blind was a hard rock band from Houston. The group played together for about 3 ½ years before signing with Intrasound. Around the same time as their album release, three members (Alkire, Laurents, and McNeely) were involved in a serious traffic accident, sustaining long term injuries when their van was hit by a drunk driver. The group told the story of the accident and of their recovery in HM, including the opportunity they had to offer forgiveness to the man responsible for the accident when they met him in court. Musically, 20/20 Blind had a sound influenced by groups like King's X and Queensrÿche, with an emphasis on melody and competent musicianship.
