Fronted by singer Shannon Hoon who can be heard doing backing vocals on Guns N Roses Use Your Illusion I and II Blind Melon had a distinctive sound, influenced by Southern Rock and Psychedelic Rock. Songs like Soak the Sin and Tones of Home evoke Hard Rock with a funky sound Time resembles Grateful Dead-style improvisational music and acoustic songs like Change and No Rain hinted at Pop and Folk influences. The band recorded the bulk of the album with producer Rick Parashar who had produced Pearl Jam s Ten at London Bridge Studio in Seattle, Washington. Blind Melon s production is marked by the use of outdated amplifiers and other antiquated studio technology.
