DED have signed to UNFD and have debuted the video below for their song “Rockstar.” Joe Cotela, the band’s vocalist offered the following:
“In a way, our new song ‘Rockstar‘ could serve as the ‘Anti-Rockstar’ mentality anthem. I’m not going to drop examples or point fingers about this topic to pigeonhole it. But I will simply say that I am personally drawn to and enjoy genuine and authentic music created genuine and authentic people.
I have always been connected with stoicism and humbleness in all facets of life. To be clear, I am not against success, certain aesthetics, making money, or becoming popular if it is done correctly.
Music is sacred to me, it’s my community, my religion, my vessel, my friend, my psychologist at times, and my safe place of artistic expression to get lost in. I respect it and appreciate it too much to watch it be exploited and used cheaply like it is sometimes by certain people with cringe vibes.”
“The boys gave me some of the grooviest and heaviest music that we have ever done in DED for me to get down on and I couldn’t be more confident and proud of this unfiltered direction of our band. We have been away for a while but we are definitely back and we are bringing hell with us.”
