DEADLETTER are announcing their debut album Hysterical Strength (13th September via SO Recordings) and sharing lead single ‘Mere Mortal’ alongside a raft of new UK and EU headline tour dates.
‘Mere Mortal’ makes for some introduction to the band’s debut album proper. Contorting, elastic basslines and stuttering, angular guitar motifs are punctuated with impulsive saxophone that together forge a song full of intention from the embers of personal tragedy, after the suicide of a close friend. Produced by famed British producer Jim Abbiss (Arctic Monkeys, Adele), it’s a model introduction to an album of exploratory art-punk that brews malevolent atmospheres and searches darkened corridors for clarity amongst the cacophony of chaos.
Lead singer Zac Lawrence says about the song: "Though Mere Mortal was written in the wake of personal tragedy, its intention is not to convey the sentiment of subjective grief, but to act as an undoubtedly relatable tale of loss and longing for all those who themselves have been faced with and have had to navigate the confusing, painful landscape that bereavement leaves one confronted by."
