For 35 years, Strung Out has been banging out their signature brand of intense, frenetic, metal-influenced punk, elevating the band to elite status, and playing a significant role in redefining the genre. Strung Out's tenth studio album, "Dead Rebellion," packs that same familiar punch, but with a new focus on melody, showing a band that is still evolving more than three decades into their distinguished career. Produced, mixed, and recorded by Shawn McGee, "Dead Rebellion" might represent a new chapter for Strung Out, but it's guided by the same principles that have always driven them.
