Good Music You Should Know About - Vex Red

After the break up of long standing emotionally charged industrial band Stabbing Westward, there was a vacuum to be filled in the "overly depressing songs with electronics in the background" department. Many bands tried to fill this slot, and many bands have failed. One band that was closer than most to succeeding, however, was Vex Red. Coming out of nowhere with a CD of high grade tearjerking industrial/acoustic music and a slot performing on the Warped Tour, they just might have made it. Sadly, to this day they have only released one CD, the lead single of which being "Can't Smile."
