Dead Confederate to drop Wrecking Ball, announce tour dates.

by oz on August 18, 2008

Georgia’s Dead Confederate are releasing their debut full-length album, Wrecking Ball, on September 16th on Tao Records.  According to their press release, they conjured the haunting sound of the album the old-fashioned way: by making it in the tiny concrete box of a studio in Austin, Texas, where the sound effects for The Texas Chainsaw Massacre were recorded.

You loved writing that title didn’t you?
