Austria’s DeeCracks Return With New Album “True Nothing”

Since Vienna’s DeeCRACKS last studio album was released in 2021 the band have celebrated their 20th anniversary, not by kicking back and resting on their laurels, but by re-recording three 10″s worth of their fan-favorite songs on 2023’s 20 Years. A Frantic Effort, and backing up Andrea Manges for a full album cover of the Ramones‘ classic Brain Drain in 2024! All while keeping up a worldwide touring schedule that puts most bands to shame. And they also found the time to write and record 18 brand new songs for the new full length, True Nothing, that is now available through streaming platforms, Bandcamp, and on ‘watermelon cream’, ‘ultra clear’, ‘bone & pink splatter’, and ‘classic black’ vinyl via Pirates Press Records US), Lotterlabel (AT), CoreTex Records (DE), Striped Music (IT) and Plastic Head (UK)

The worldwide fanbase of these veteran punkers know what to expect: buzzsaw guitars, deftly executed melodies, and some of the most locked-in, irresistibly catchy punk rock this side of Forest Hills, Queens. Underneath the gloss of pop sensibility, of course, it’s not all sunshine and encouragement. There is a dark undercurrent of pain present in the songs, as the band navigates struggles with mental illness, life, and relationships in a straightforward and confessional manner.
