Now what you are about to hear is a nightmare, not only your America, but our world, great. Rather important Organ Thing of TheDay today, Dead Pioneers have announced a new album, listen on up now, properly listen, woke is good and now do we need to remind you that we were punk first, oh yes, we were playing this lot on our radiowaves and throwing them at you via our fractured pages way before anyone else over here was awake to the beautiful threat that is Dead Pioneers.
Today Dead Pioneers announce ther new album PO$T AMERICAN out 11th April on Hassle Records, they’ve also shared the second single from the album, the title track PO$T AMERICAN. Here it is, celebrate it, thank us one day, no hassle, set that tone, flip you, we’re almost at post Organ now, will you miss us?

Here’s a taste of Po$t American….
On the single, vocalist and songwriter, Gregg Deal says: “We, like many people in our communities, are incensed by the overt and jarring political and social moves of United States Politics. From the current administration to the administrations before it, there has been a trajectory in this country that has brought us to the critical moment we are all looking at. Our hope in this song, is maybe, just maybe we are saying something you feel too. “PO$T AMERICAN” is an unapologetic song.
I wrote this song on White people’s day of Independence, July 4, 2024. I wrote it sitting next to my oldest son while watching fireworks and having a discussion on what this day was supposed to mean. It went into a discussion of everything that was happening in that moment. Little did I know at the exact moment, that the relevant things would escalate, and become more stark. This was written to be scathing, honest, saying the quiet thing out loud. As we look upon the United States political landscape, this is very much how we feel.”
More from the new album…
“How can an album sum up a point in time? Can it capture or presage the mood and state of a nation? This second album by Dead Pioneers suggests so: PO$T AMERICAN is the end of the beginning and the beginning of the end.
Written in February and recorded in July, it pre-empts the 2024 American election but wraps up the fears and frustrations as eloquently and, crucially, humourously as their self-titled debut, released by Hassle Records in August 2024″.
