The sounds created by Last Days of Death Country have been described as rich and emotional, and this is exactly what they are. Their songs are full of beautiful guitar melodies and gritty guitar riffs infused with haunting lyrical harmonies that strike straight to the heart. Newly formed, Last Days of Death Country are a band that do their extreme best to ensure that you will not forget them in a hurry. In their time together they have toured the Irish roads rather extensively and for a band that is only in the midst of recording their debut EP, they have turned quite a few heads.
Patrick O’Brien’s voice perfectly expresses the emotional lyrics and his thundering guitar lines the sound which makes Last Days of Death Country such an ear turning band. Dave O’Dowd highlights the melody lines with his gritty guitar riffs and accompanies Patrick with his own melodic vocal tone while Gary Lysaght creates his own bass styling’s to push the sound as far as it will go. Completing the line up is Rob Kelly, who produces a relentless driving and trashing drum sound that never fails to impress.
The band began recording in November '08 with Fergal Lawler (The Cranberries) and are still working under his guidance to perfect their much anticipated debut release. So far, the EP is smelling like a treat your grandmother would have rustled up, and while containing many forms of noise making tools such as xylophones, pianos, tape echoes, glasses, and bells, the EP won’t fail to live up to the Grunge rock genre. Stay tuned for more...
