Hinder is a
Rock band from
Oklahoma City,
Oklahoma. They were immediately signed to an independent label, and released their first EP,
Far From Close. It sold about 5,000 copies. This EP landed into the ears of
Universal Records, in which Hinder was introduced into a major record label contract. Although
All Music Guide called
Extreme Behavior one of the year's worst albums, throughout 2005, the album was heavily anticipated, and Hinder won the monthy Launch! "Who's Next" contest for emerging bands. Their
Brian Howes and
Mike Fraser produced album,
Extreme Behavior, was then set for release in the US.
Since then, the band has toured with
Theory of a Deadman as well as with
Three Days Grace. In the Summer of '06 they opened for
Godsmack and also toured with
Nickelback,
Hoobastank and
Chevelle,
Staind, and
Shinedown. Hinder is currently on tour with
Burden Brothers and
Black Stone Cherry. The band played three dates with the mega rock band
Aerosmith in December of '06.
Skillet was originally going to join them on the tour but Hinder turned them down after finding out they are a
Christian band. "
[1]" Hinder jumped on to the rock scene with the single, "Get Stoned". The band then toured in support of
Extreme Behavior. The band's second single, "
Lips of an Angel", became a smash hit as the song made its way up the charts and the band received nationwide attention. "
Lips of an Angel" is now being covered by country artist
Jack Ingram, whose next album is tentatively called "Riding Coattails." The band's third single from their debut album became "How Long". Rehearsals.com is showing several video performances of these singles.

The fourth single has been confirmed to be "Better Than Me" as confirmed by an interview with Mark King.
"Well, hopefully late next year. Depends on how the next singles do. The next single is
How Long and then we’ll come back with
“Better Than Me”. <sup class="noprint">[

On
