DOWNLOAD & WATCH: Dead Confederate - The Rat & Video

While the Georgian band Dead Confederate definitely has its Lynyrd Skynyrd undertones, their music is also in the same league as the psychedelic cowboys The Black Angels: redefining "Southern Rock" with a hint of darkness and whiskey-smoked reverb.  In this song “The Rat,” lead singer Hardy Morris sounds like a dead ringer for Kings of Leon’s Caleb Followill.

IDead Confederate's new album "Wrecking Ball," comes out in stores today. It was recorded in a veritable "shit shack" in Austin- the same place where the Texas Chainsaw Massacre sound effects were recorded. It's got an addictive, greasy and dark tonality.

Oh and we popped in the video for "The Rat" above. It's wicked in a morose and rusty way. Check it above.

Sounds Like: The Black Angels, Kings of Leon
