London quartet Dead! have released a brand new single, Something More Original.
“The song is about people who aren’t happy but who just sit around and don’t try to improve their situation,” says frontman Alex Mountford. “Whether this band happens or whether we crumble, we’re fucking trying.”
The release precedes a busy month which sees the band take in appearances at Reading and Leeds festivals as well as an extensive UK tour supporting Oakland punks SWMRS, formerly known as Emily’s Army.
