Fans of The Afghan Whigs can download the band’s track “Matamoros“off their April LP release Do to the Beast, out now on Sub Pop. Named after a Mexican town plagued by Satanic murders, this cut employs a wickedly seductive drum and bass-line that sets the mood for singer Greg Dulli‘s grim, blood-curdling tales of dark obsession.
