DMV-by-way-of-the-U.K. punk duo Teen Mortgage have announced their debut album, Devil Ultrasonic Dream, out April 11 via Roadrunner Records. Produced by the band alongside longtime collaborator Kenny Eaton, the album’s first single, “BOX,” is a two-minute sprint of seething defiance, packed with hooks and unrelenting energy. The song arrives with an Adam Fuchs (Adult Swim, Flying Lotus, HEALTH, Skrillex) animated and directed video. Watch that here. The album’s title, Devil Ultrasonic Dream, leans into the 1980s-era satanic panic in rock and roll—especially as the country lurches further into Christian theocracy and censorship. “The Devil Ultrasonic Dream,” explains frontman James Guile, “is about realising a fantasy that Christian fascists don’t understand or want you to have. The devil—Satan—has always been a symbol of counterculture.”
The band has announced a US tour in support of the album. Kicking off April 8th in Richmond, VA the 26 dates you will make stops in Atlanta, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver, Chicago, Detroit, New York and many more before concluding May 17th in Baltimore. Tickets for the tour go on sale this Friday February 7th at 10am local time. Support on the tour will include Babe Haven, Spoon Benders and Upchuck on select dates. Teen Mortgage will also return to the UK and Europe this summer performing at some of the world's biggest rock festivals including Hellfest, Rock Am Ring /Rock Im Park and Download Festival and support to WEEZER at their shows in Halifax and Dublin.
Originally from England, Guile had been toying with the Teen Mortgage project under various monikers for years, crafting a sound steeped in sociopolitical commentary and built for the mosh pit, heavily influenced by classic ’80s punk. After relocating to Maryland five years ago, he connected with drummer (and former nurse) Edward Barakauskas via a Craigslist ad. Since then, the duo have spent years building Teen Mortgage’s presence in the DMV scene. In between a global pandemic and Barakauskas serving as an ER frontline worker, they managed to drop an EP and a string of singles before signing to Roadrunner Records in 2024. Teen Mortgage has earned support slots with a stacked list of artists, from Weezer, Smashing Pumpkins, OFF!, and Alkaline Trio to Hotline TNT, Die Spitz, Wine Lips, and more.
