 NEW ALBUM FISSION ARRIVES JANUARY 26 VIA SPINEFARM

Los Angeles quartet DEAD POET SOCIETY will drop their second albumFISSION on January 26 via Spinefarm. Pre-order it here.

Today, the band has shared a video comprised of live performance footage for the new single "How Could I Love You?" Watch it below.

The footage is culled from the band's recent performances at Blueberry Hill in St. Louis and at the Subterranean in Chicago.

In this clip, you get a bird's eye view of the band members before they hit the stage, connecting with fans in the moment while knuckling down on their instruments, and doing what they do best — taking the stage and owning it. You will feel like you are front and center at a DPS show. The footage is so immediate you just might feel the buzz of the guitars and the sweat from the band members.

Check out the album version of "How Could I Love You?"

The track is a sonic roller coaster of heartache and defiance, and plunges into the depths of shattered love with relentless intensity. The raw vulnerability of the lyrics, combined with the electrifying guitar riffs, creates an epic musical landscape that mirrors the tumultuous journey of love betrayed. It's more than a song; it's an emotional battleground where Dead Poet Society lay bare the scars of heartbreak, inviting listeners to join them in a cathartic and dramatic exploration of love's complex terrain. 

Dead Poet Society released "Running in Circles" and "Hurt," followed by "I hope you hate me," which accompanied "How Could I Love You?"

Watch the videos here.

Dead Poet Society accumulated over 72 million global streams, with nearly 32 million streams in the U.S. alone. The band also enjoyed two Top 15 singles at radio and key playlisting.

Dead Poet Society Announce New Album "FISSION" + Share "I hope you hate me." / "How Could I Love You?

Los Angeles quartet DEAD POET SOCIETY are pleased to announce their second album FISSION. It arrives on January 26 via Spinefarm. Pre-order it here.

After a decade defining, redefining, and perfecting their art, Fission finds Dead Poet Society poised to be rock's next breakout act. The album is a 13-track study of personal change and the turbulence of growth that, as frontman Jack Underkofler attests, takes "a microscopic and broad look at the events that changed who we are."

Today, the band has dropped two singles — "I hope you hate me." and "How Could I Love You?"

Both songs address the sometimes bittersweet, more often simply bitter, fallout from a tumultuous relationship. The latter is an excruciating yet intoxicating journey, backed by searing guitars, while the former addresses the aftermath of a relationship.

The video for "I hope you hate me" features dancer and breakout social media star This Robot Cannot Human, whose carefully choreographed moves perfectly reflect the song's tension and slow, calculated build up. The track effortlessly mixes a subtle take on '80s nu wave with alt rock fury, thanks to pulsating riffs and drumbeats that echo your own heartbeat.

 Ultimately, Underkofler says the band has one mission for fans and listeners of the new album: "We want to leave them with the truth."

Further elaborating on the concept, he says, "It's not as simple as saying we want our music to leave people with a positive outlook. You want music to speak to wherever you find yourself. We want to leave people feeling that whatever they are experiencing is valid, no matter what place they are at in their lives."

To that end, there are deep rakings over the coals of relationship breakdowns, examinations of addiction in all its guises, ruminations on the responsibilities and challenges of adulthood, and struggles with the evolution, loss and continual search for self. "In a lot of ways this album is about unpacking those emotional pains that come with being an adult," Underkofler says. "The past few years have left me in a constant state of growth through the life events of which I've had little control, or which didn’t pan out the way I wanted them to. There's a 'before' you, and an 'after' you, and there's no going back. Life tends to force your hand, and it's futile to fight it. You have to accept that things that happen to you will change you, and let them build you into the next phase of who you are. There is a constant battle to not mourn who I was, because the things you go through define you as a person and turn you into a person worth being. But that can be difficult to wrestle with. There is a positive to it, but it is birthed through a lot of pain."

While the lyrics are fully relatable, the music is a DNA-distinct blend of anthemic alternative, dark and moody hard rock, and progressive indie. FISSION is truly unlike anything you've heard in recent times.

Dead Poet Society released two songs last month — they shared the new double single "Running in Circles" and "Hurt." Watch the videos here.
