People hear various influences in this bands sound. It seems to me their biggest influence is Andrew Wood/Mother Love Bone. The vocals certainly are a nod to Andy's stylings and there are references in the lyrics too.
Anyhow, this is a great album and I'm not aware of anyone else (tho' I'm sure there is someone) who is covering this territory.
It's sleazy and swaggering mixed with a stoner heaviness and I keep coming back to it.

I first came across SGT Thunderhoof on their spilt with Howling Giant. The quality of their track compelled me to search for more. And were better to start than the beginning. There are only 5 songs on this album, but, as you’ll discover when you start listening, the SGT love his long tunes that eb & flow with walls of sound punctuated with meandering interludes. This album just gets better the further you get through it. The other reviews are right. Not their best but still really good. Harry Harrison

SGT Thunderhoof has become one of my favourite bands…..ever. And if I was held at gun point and asked which was my favourite albums from them, it would be this one, Ride of the Hoof. I listen to ST a lot but my go-to album is this one. If I’m not careful, I don’t give the other ST albums a fair go and that would just be depriving me of the greatness of all their other awesome tunes. With only a limited number of hours in the day, this posses quiet a conundrum. Harry Harrison
