Dead Pioneers Punch Out “Nazi Teeth” On New Single & Video

Dead Pioneers, the Indigenous fronted band from Denver, thump back into action this week with one of their most enraged, powerful and important pieces of work yet. As the upsurge of the far right and white supremacists continues to rise and come out of hiding, Dead Pioneers are ready to fight back with their new single, Nazi Teeth, the first track to be lifted from their forthcoming third album. The single features a fiery vocal collaboration from Stephanie Bryne (Cheap Perfume) reconnecting with their fantastic 2016 song, It’s Okay To Punch Nazis. Stephanie’s voice breaks through the song, doubling down on confronting white supremacists throughout the world. Dead Pioneers will play their first EU and UK headline tour later this month, with Yakkie opening for the band on the UK leg of the tour.

“While unfortunate that it needs to be done, we’ll never shy away from calling out the elephant in the room. Although we didn’t expect this elephant to be the revival of fascists on Amerikkkan soil. Maybe we should have. Frustrated and angry, ready and willing to fight, it’s not lost on us that the need to write a song like this or say these words out loud is grim, ironic, and disconcerting. Nevertheless, here we are, and we’re here to do it. The United States of Amerikkka is in disarray, and ‘Nazi Teeth’ is not just our answer to what we’re seeing and experiencing in the streets of the so-called land of the free, but a call to action, fighting the continuing manifestation of forces our grandparents and great grandparents fought some 81-plus years ago,” continues Gregg. “It should be obvious, but for some people it seems this needs spelling out: Fuck Nazis, Fuck Fascism, Fuck ICE, Fuck Pedos, and Fuck Trump and his administration. If violence is the only language they speak, it’s okay to punch Nazi teeth. We are witnessing in real time the violent and horrifying overextension of this administration, while many of our brothers and sisters have been suffering at the hands of white supremacy and colonialism for generations. Nazi teeth is a call to action to hold the line with your friends, family, and community. Keeping Nazis down keeps us all free.” (frontman Gregg Deal)
