Hard-hitting rock group Dead Superstar are set to shake up the music scene with their latest release, “These Voices”, the lead single from their upcoming EP, “Rid The Fear”. The track is now available on major streaming platforms showcasing the band’s signature bone-crushing sound. This acts as the follow-up to the John Karkazis Mix of their track, “Beware of the Knife”.

On top of that, he manages to connect with the audience, bringing heartfelt passion as he truly believes in every word he is singing.
The track progresses through a series of rock levels, truly allowing each member of the band to shine with their faultless playing. The lyrics touch upon mental health and how life can bring people down however the protagonist questions whether he’s his own worst enemy.
The introspective lyrics are bound to resonate with every single listener and will no doubt strike realisation in many people and hopefully, in turn, become something positive. “These Voices” by Dead Superstar shows exactly how incredible they are as a band and we’re certain that this track is going to sound amazing live!

Anticipated for release later this Spring, the EP, titled “Rid The Fear”, guarantees an eclectic musical odyssey with accompanying tracks “Loose Strings”, “Without You”, the two-step “Firewoman”, “The Anthem”, and a bonus track, “Our Life As We Know It”. The release of this EP acts as their debut EP collection, following the release of their previous two albums, 2020’s “I Did it for the Rock Gods” and 2011’s “Tribulations – V2.1”.
Terence Keith spoke about the inspiration behind the single’s cover art. He explains, “In the cover art for the song, the finger in the TV that is pointing at the screaming face symbolizes all these authoritarian voices we deal with on a daily basis that are dictating their poisonous views upon us all. Continually dragging society down with unnecessary turmoil, unreasonable demands, and hardcore restrictions that weigh heavy on every person’s mind and spirit.”
To complement the release, Dead Superstar is gearing up for a series of 2024 tour dates, set to kick off in March, with a major announcement on the horizon. They already have revealed an upcoming gig, where they will be headlining a show, which is titled “Kick Out The Jams”, at the RiffHouse Pub in Chesapeake, Virginia, with Spirit Gun, Balazitos, and Pagan River Madness, all performing also, on March 1, 2024.
