The Country Dark is a garage rock and trash rock'n'roll band based in Kuopio, Finland.

History

The Country Dark started their career playing minimalist "murder-country" music crammed with sleazy stories about psycho killer scumbags, sexually overloaded weirdos and perverted alien abductors from outer space. Nowadays their repertoire leans more and more towards wild trash rock'n'roll and mutated garage rock aesthetics.
