"We chose 'Dead Man' as our first single because of how well it encompasses the entity of our band," explains guitarist/vocalist Stephen Cobucci. "As a song it has sort of a youthful energy about it that we really enjoy playing and a really solid melody that we feel will draw in new fans and appease long time fans."

"Writing this song quite easily took longer than anything else on the album. I heard in my head how I wanted the song to sound, but it took about a month's worth of work to get everything to the point where it flowed musically and lyrically. I record all of our preproduction on my computer and there's a folder I like to call the 'riff graveyard' which contains all the riffs I wrote for the record that never made it... 'Dead Man' easily had the largest riff graveyard of any song on the record." Listen here.
