Dead Year Unveil “Just Then” From Upcoming “Night Thoughts” Album

German post punk trio Dead Year are set to release their new full length, Night Thoughts, via Dirt Cult Records in North America and My Ruin Records in Europe on the 2nd February, ahead of the release the band is releasing their new track, Just Then, as a teaser. Dead Years consists of Juiia, Hannes and Jonas who have all played in other bands, including Gloom Sleeper, Pointed, Ruins, Mayak and Shoyu Squad, before combining their talents and releasing their self titled debut album in 2022. 

Dead Years has a unique sound characterized by playful riffs, intense alternating vocals and pounding drums. Imagine the “dark punk” of The Wipers and Masshysteri mixed with the aggression and gruffness of Hot Water Music and Fifth Hour Hero. On Night Thoughts, Dead Years effortlessly creates a vibe that hypnotically attracts and embraces the listener. But it’s not just about the music: their lyrics reinforce the meloncoly of their sound. They deal with self-doubt, social anxieties and the daily struggle to find ones way in an alientating world.
