"Fission" LP by Dead Poet Society

Appears on colored, Limited Edition Vinyl (Silver)

The new album from Dead Poet Society proves depth and substance without losing their familiar charm.

After a decade of defining, redefining, and perfecting their craft, Dead Poet Society find themselves in a much clearer position on the eve of their second release. Make no mistake: Dead Poet Society is a uniquely captivating band, the next big breakthrough in rock music, and 'FISSION' will capture the hearts of old and new fans on the upcoming journey, challenging their minds. When asked what listeners should take away from 'FISSION,' Dead Poet Society's upcoming second album, Jack Underkofler responds with eight small but meaningful words: 'We want to leave them with the truth.'

Following their acclaimed debut '-!-' (2021), 'FISSION' aims to decipher the personal journey of its creators up to this point. As the title suggests, 'FISSION' is a 13-track study of personal change and the turbulence of growth, which, as Underkofler confirms, 'takes a microscopic and comprehensive look at the events that have changed us'. The result is a captivating album with depth and substance that moves within the spectrum of anthemic alternative, dark hard rock, and progressive indie. 'FISSION' is both comforting and unsettlingly unfamiliar, raw and analog. Unexpected twists and deviations often reveal themselves; repeated listens unveil even greater secrets.
