Video: The Whigs – “Kill Me Carolyne”

Here’s “Kill Me Carolyne”, the first single/video from the Athens, Georgia trio The Whigs. The song can be found on the band’s second album, In the Dark, which was released earlier this year. These guys sound a lot like the stuff that was coming out of Columbus, Ohio in the early-to-mid ’90s mixed with the southern stylings of Kings of Leon and Drive-By Truckers.
