I thought Dead Confederate was the best of a shitload of shitty openers at REM's SXSW set... and still thought they were kind of shitty. On the recommendation of a friend, I picked up their debut a month ago because he pointed out they list In Utero, On The Beach, and Meddle as their 3 influences on Myspace. He swore up and down that I would absolutely love them and he was right. It's a great album with a couple of amazingly great songs.

The Dead Confederate CD is going to end up very high on my end-of-year list. What a debut, this thing kicks complete ass.
