DROP DEAD, GORGEOUS

Hard rock heroes DROP DEAD, GORGEOUS have returned with an explosive thrill-ride of a record. Bolstered by the same crushing intensity that first earned the Denver-bred band a loyal global following, DROP DEAD, GORGEOUS’ electrifying and adventurous new studio disc--appropriately dubbed "Hot 'N Heavy" (Suretone) --can’t help but leave its metalcore peers in the dust. Crafted with the guidance of Atlanta-based producer Matt Goldman (Underoath, The Chariot, Copeland), DROP DEAD, GORGEOUS-- who incidentally sport the coolest moniker in rock--ups their creative ante with the follow-up to 2007’s heralded concept disc Worse Than A Fairy Tale. Drawing lyrically on real life experiences while fusing unexpected twists and turns to its forceful anthems, "Hot 'N Heavy" is diverse and cohesive. “To be blunt,” notes frontman DANNY STILLMAN, “it’s a song cycle that sucker punches listeners and then sucks them in like a Hoover.”
