Buckcherry offers alternative to EDC

So it’s not like we exactly need counterprogramming to the Electric Daisy Carnival. Even though it draws more than 100,000 people, life goes on as usual in the suburbs around Red Rock Resort.

Still. If you were trying to come up with the extreme opposite of electronic dance music?

Buckcherry.

The grungy quintet lays down their beats per minute the old fashioned way, with a drum kit.

But there’s still an attention to melody, or what they used to call a “song,” in the Aerosmith and Guns N’ Roses tradition.

Most of all? Strip club DJs may not be the same type of DJ as Tiesto or Calvin Harris, but they know “Crazy Bitch” is their best friend.
