Drop Dead, Gorgeous are an intense, screamy post-hardcore band hailing from Denver, Colorado whose eldest member clocks in at the ripe age of 21. The band has been together for two years, and are catching on like wildfire due to their unique sound. Lots of bands are playing music that’s heavier than a slab of granite, but Drop Dead, Gorgeous like to keep things interesting and unpredictable, thanks to their use of keyboards and pianos, which give their album plenty of rich dynamics. The album is dissonant, but melodies are omnipresent. The keyboards set DD,G apart from the oversaturated, overcrowded, dime-a-dozen pack. Their indie LP on Rise Records has sold over 30,000 since its release in May 2006.
