Dead Rebellion, Strung Out’s 10th album and the next step in their 35-year evolution, marks a deliberate shift—a heavier, more melodic turn that redefines the band without losing their roots. Written during the pandemic but conceived long before it, the record closes one chapter and opens another.“We got to that point where we’d start repeating ourselves,” says vocalist Jason Cruz. “This one’s more mid-tempo, more melodic—still heavy, just not worried about speed.”
Produced by Shawn McGee at Artistry Recording Studio in Las Vegas, Dead Rebellion sees Strung Out—Cruz, Rob Ramos, Chris Aiken, Derik Envy, and Daniel Blume—balance aggression with melody and depth. Tracks like “Future Ghosts,” “Cages,” and “Empire Down” tackle modern chaos, technology, and division while questioning what rebellion means in a fractured world.
“The key to this record is technology and divisiveness,” Cruz explains. “What happened to bringing people together? We’re all just trying to find common ground.”
Strung Out has never claimed to be political, but Dead Rebellion captures the tension of the times. “We’re just five guys proving you can come together and make something beautiful if you put your bullshit aside.”
35 years in, Strung Out continues to evolve—still raw, still real, still fighting to connect.
