Band: DEADLETTER

Who: Hailing from Yorkshire, now South London rooted, this band channels
the droll fury of The Fall and the lopsided rhythm of Gang of Four into a strain
of vehement post-punk, exploring the darker side of existence through a lens
of narrative-driven levity.

New single: MERE MORTAL
Piece from their long-awaited debut LP Hysterical Strength,
out on 13 September. More info here.


New album artwork

Zac Lawrence (frontman) about the LP: “It’s punishing but there’s also fucking beauty out there. Being able to take something disgusting or disgraceful and make it sound nice through the power of music, that juxtaposition appeals to me.”

TUTV: With two bang-on EPs and a couple of striking stand-alone singles, DEADLETTER already earned their place in the impressive cast of post-Brexshit bands like shame, Ditz, Gallus, Lambrini Girls, Bad Nerves, black midi, Black Country New Road and more.

Mere Mortal is another funk punk DEADLETTER chant. It grooves and moves, rattles
and rambles while Lawrence unleashes another stream of thoughts like a words waterfall and that sultry sax pops up now and then again. There’s always a sonic light shining at the end of the tunnel that calls life. Bingo!

Wake up, people.
DEADLETTER is coming
on, really strong.
