Single Review: Stealing Angels - "He Better Be Dead"

This is the debut single for new female trio Stealing Angels. The three girls who make up the group have interesting family backgrounds (Decendants of Daniel Boone, John Wayne and Loretta Lynn), but don’t think they rely on that as a crutch to lean on. The song itself sounds like a mix of “Before He Cheats’” anger, “Goodbye Earle’s” humour, and “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend’s” possession issues, though it can be broken down, like their heritage it can stand on it’s own. The sound of the record is very late ninties which may be coming back into prominence with similar sounding songs currently doing well on the charts. Being on a small label coupled with the lack of female success on the charts means this most likely won’t do well on the charts but Country radio could use some fiestyness again so they should take my advice and jump all over this.
