Dead Confederate, Free MP3, New Album, Tour
Dead Confederate release their debut LP - WRECKING BALL on September 16 via TAO Records. At Sasquatch Festival this year one of my new music discoveries was these guys. I’m not a lover of the Rock Music so much as you know, but Dead Confederate grabbed me and held on so there was something there that day. They are about to deliver their debut album which I’m actually looking forward to.
“We’re kind of like a Jackson Pollock painting,” explains singer/guitarist Hardy Morris, 28. “Brutally honest. There isn’t some big twist or turn, it just lays it all out there. Immediate, no frills, primal, emotional.”
“Dead Confederate’s wall of sound feels cinematic and atmospheric, loud and beautiful” - NPR.com
“Although southern Civil War soldiers may remain six feet under, Dead Confederate’s sincere versatility drives home rock ‘n roll that is damn well alive and kicking.” - Spin.com
“Known for its notoriously insane live show, this dramatic band forges a distinctive style…” - Paste
“Dead Confederate’s live shows are sonic explosions taut with emotion.” - Harp
