A Day To Remember Debut "Dead & Buried"

posted in: Music News • Rock

Floridian hard rock act A Day To Remember kicked off their highly anticipated fall headlining tour earlier this week and are already making headlines around the globe with sold-out performances and brilliant reviews. Last night the group added a twist to the evening’s proceedings by debuting a never-before-heard song entitled “Dead & Buried.” We were not there, but one diehard ADTR fan with a camera was, and now the entire world can hear what ADTR have been working on.

Kicking off with a structure reminiscent of the material found on For Those Who Have Heart, the latest from A Day To Remember finds a perfect balance between the world of rock and pop-infused hardcore. The verses chug ahead, one crushing beat at a time, while the verses are filled with clean vocals and repetitious songwriting. It’s essentially ADTR 101, but with a few hints of punk thrown in to sweeten the deal. You can view the performance below.

“Dead & Buried” is one of only a few songs to have surfaced ahead of A Day To Remember’s long-awaited new album, Common Courtesy, hitting stores. The record was expected to arrive last spring, but a lawsuit with former label Victory Records delayed the release. Now, still embroiled in a legal battle, the band has announced plans to self-release the album on October 8. Victory has yet to comment on the move.
