MP3 Download: The Sounds’ Emotional ‘Better Off Dead’
Click to listen to The Sounds’ ‘Better Off Dead’
Swedish indie rock band the Sounds are heading out on a North American tour in support of their album Something to Die For, which was released earlier this year. Guitarist Felix Rodriguez explains that the emotional, dancefloor-ready track “Better Off Dead” has some deeply personal meaning for the band in addition to its thumping electro-beats. “Better Off Dead is one of my personal favorite songs. It’s a song that we refused to compromise with when we recorded it,” Rodriguez explains. “It has many layers of different influences, and the structure of the song is really different from what we’ve done before.”
