...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead -- live, loud and distorted on Pandora

...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead -- live, loud and distorted on Pandora

Some bands cherish volume and distortion as compositional elements, and ...Trail of Dead (aka AYWKUBTTOD) is one of those bands. These Austin natives brought the hammer down with their performance at the Pandora office, and bruised the walls with their heavy, epic, mountain-shaking, occasionally Tolkienesque rock.

Be prepared to have your hair blown back and your ears pinned to your skull. These guys are LOUD.

On March 17th, the first single, “Love Solution” from their newest EP, Two Years Ago E.P., will be available exclusively digitally, finishing up with the summer release of the full EP itself.

The group’s self-titled debut album hit as high as the #21 spot, on both the Billboard Magazine “New Artist Album” and Heatseekerscharts.
