Sinkhole 03:33
I’m gonna die in a sinkhole I’m gonna die in a sinkhole I’m gonna die in a sinkhole I’m gonna die Now I’m going to close my eyes And I’m going to fall asleep Everything is wrong underneath And I’m going to fall real deep I’m gonna die in a sinkhole I’m gonna die in a sinkhole I’m gonna die in a sinkhole I’m gonna die My foundation is a depression My foundation is collapsing Now I’m going to close my eyes And I’m going to fall asleep Everything is wrong underneath And I’m going to fall My foundation is a depression My foundation is collapsing I’m going to close my eyes I’m going to fall asleep Everything is wrong underneath And I’m going to fall real deep My foundation is a depression My foundation is collapsing

Philadelphia 02:48
I don’t understand Philadelphia I don’t understand Philadelphia It’s hard to book a show All of the bands say no It’s close to everything but no one even goes I don’t understand Philadelphia I don’t understand Philadelphia I’ll talk to my friend Gary Over at the pharmacy He is a bike messenger and he owns an entire building On the corner of a city block with an art gallery and a coffee shop I don’t understand Philadelphia I don’t understand Philadelphia I don’t understand Philadelphia I don’t get Philadelphia I don’t get Philadelphia

Hidden Track 02:52
Pop in a CD Play it to the end I didn’t hit stop but it started over again Not to the beginning It didn’t shuffle around A new song in a hidden track That is what I found I wanna hear your hidden track Surprise me so I come back I wanna hear your hidden track Surprise me so I come back I found a mixtape With no information label I wonder what’s on this tape but I only have a turntable So I put a record on And I sing along I wish this record had a hidden song I wanna hear your hidden track Surprise me so I come back I wanna hear your hidden track Surprise me so I come back Let it play forever I wanna hear your hidden track Surprise me so I come back I wanna hear your hidden track Surprise me so I come back Hidden track Your hidden track Hidden track, oh yeah

about

RAD-077:

DEAD BARS began in Seattle when punk drummer John Maiello picked up a guitar and started writing short blasts of no-bs-power-punk-rock in 2013. Soon after, NJ punk drummer C.J Frederick joined to play drums and guitar. They quickly recorded 6 songs which made their way onto an EP and split 7" on legendary No Idea Records in 2014. The next few years saw the two working and re-working their first album Dream Gig which finally came to life sometime in 2017, also on No Idea Records.

The next phase of the band introduced Jon Oddo from Kansas City on bass guitar. The three started making their next album Regulars which was released in 2019 on punk legends Anti-Flag's A-F Records. Shortly after, Elliot Thordarson and Paul Davis came in to fill out the lineup on guitar and drums respectively. The group continues to consistently release new singles and live material on their own label DEAD BARS RECORDS, as well as collaborations with friends Rad Girlfriend Records, Dirt Cult Records, Surfridge Records, and most recently the fine folks at Really Rad Records.

2023 marks the 10-year anniversary of the group and starts the next phase of the DEAD BARS story. The future is unwritten. The family is growing, and the universe is vast. Dead Bars are better than ever! Enjoy the ride! Dead Bars Forever!
