… And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead – The Century Of Self
And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead are not a band that I am familiar with.They are a six man Texan outfit and their music reminded me of Blue Oyster Cult, without the catchiness of their songs, or the power and mystery. However they conform with the unrelentingly strong streak of dark which runs through all of this indie music.
Recently released, this is the sixth album by AYWKUBTTOD. It is intense, provocative, indie prog rock, very Seventies influenced.
Of course the NME gave this album 6 out of 10 in their review in this week’s edition of the magazine.Which means they were not too impressed.Having watched a video online of Bells Of Creation, a track off the album (incidentally the cover picture was drawn entirely in blue ballpoint pen, surely a first?), I was suitably impressed with this band.
An original act,but I don’t like their name.
