Stream: “Fatal Deluxe” – L.S. Dunes




A fiery, feverish, and supercharged eruption, “Fatal Deluxe” is utterly uncompromising and all-consuming.

It’s the dramatic and thrilling return to the spotlight L.S. Dunes wholeheartedly deserve.

The hard rock supergroup – comprised of vocalist Anthony Green (Circa Survive), guitarist Frank Iero (My Chemical Romance), bassist Tim Payne (Thursday), guitarist Travis Stever (Coheed and Cambria), and drummer Tucker Rule (Thursday) – came out of the gates swinging with 2022’s debut album Past Lives, a “cinematic outpouring of raw, radiant music and intense emotional vulnerability.”

Fatal Deluxe - L.S. Dunes
Fatal Deluxe – L.S. Dunes
Burn, focus, with a thirst unnatural
Whenever she gets high alone
Worship, shiver,
let the world know what you are

If that’s what she wants

Within the maelstrom of the band’s surging guitars, searing drums, and roaring vocals, one can feel bits of every member’s musical background – from emo, alt-rock, and punk to metal and hardcore, and more – and it’s that striking, seamlessly blended cross-section of rock that makes every L.S. Dunes release an irresistible, automatic winner.

It’s a faceless crowd, a conscience lost
A dark secreting content salvage yard
Shallow grave
It’s a toxic-themed anniversary
Where everybody goes as their own ghost
A viral funeral post

“In my opinion, ‘Fatal Deluxe’ marks the official opening of chapter two for L.S. Dunes,” Frank Iero tells Atwood Magazine. “It’s a song that bridges the gap musically between where we were as a band and individually, and catches the listener up to where we are headed. It breaks quite a few conventional rules along the way and wipes clean the preconceptions of what the band is and might be capable of.”

“It is a song I didn’t want to stop listening to after we recorded it, and a song I cannot wait to play for a live audience. Those feelings are quite often the signs of something truly special.”

You isolate and hibernate
(And it feels like dying)
You isolate and hibernate
(A conscience lost)
You isolate and hibernate
(It feels like dying)
You isolate and hibernate…
Shiver, shiver, with a thirst unnatural
Whenever she gets high alone
Burn, worship,
show what you were made of

If that’s what she wants

:: INTERVIEW ::



A cinematic, explosive, rip-roaring rocker, “Fatal Deluxe” delivers three and a half minutes of nonstop action,

and yet it feels like a ten-minute magnum opus – a finessed tapestry of sonic and emotional turmoil, woven together by pure, palpable passion. It’s energetic and unrelenting – an exhilarating show of force from the hard rock world’s most promising supergroup.

In the shadow fields, a weightless tongue
Every other surface here is glass and ancient mass
With a faceless crowd, a conscience lost
Everybody goes as their own ghost
A viral funeral post
You isolate and hibernate
(And it feels like dying)
You isolate and hibernate
(A conscience lost)
You isolate and hibernate
(It feels like dying)
You isolate and hibernate
