Welcome to a new era of Mike’s Dead - where apologies go out the window and he embraces his most brutally honest lyrics yet. “This is definitely the heaviest song I’ve released to date” Mike shares of his new track, a raucous collab with Frankie Palmeri of EMMURE. Together, the rockers embrace their most sinister side with “Welcome To Hell”. The song marks Mike’s Dead’s second release through Hopeless Records, and comes ahead of a stacked summer of touring.
Mike’s Dead shares of the track: "Lyrically, the song is pretty intense. From an overall perspective I’m somewhat describing what my mind is like; the things I think, see and go through. “Hell” in this case serves as a reference to my brain - which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. There’s a sort of pride that Frankie and I both took with the lyrics where its like “yeah dude we’re fuckin crazy and its fuckin awesome”. There’s one line that Frankie has, “you can call this hell but I call this home” that really summarizes that narrative well. I always seem to highlight aspects of mental health in my songs and the stuff I go through so that seems to be an underlying point as well. As far as what I want listeners to take away; this is an anthem for chaos. Whether it’s in the gym, on the way to work, or on the way to a show I want this to serve as a hype song that gets people ready for war and inspires chaos. We’re all a little crazy".
