BeatCrave Fav: O’Death – Country Band On Speed
By MaliI know, this is not your typical “indie” band. You’re probably thinking, that this pick is probably the weirdest of the bunch, but trust me, they’re awesome! I’m not a country, goth, or punk, fan but these guys manage to mix them up so well, that they create something that can’t be anything other than indie. It’s new, it’s energetic, it’s inspired, it’s odd, and it’s well worth your time.
Check out O’Death in our new BEATCRAVE FAV series where we pick one awesome band a day and give you all the details you could ever want and then let you vote for you favorite pick every Friday.
