Have you ever poured your soul into someone who couldn’t be bothered to return the favor? Modern rock and metal band Dead Eyes have, and they’re turning that universal heartache into sonic catharsis with their blistering new single "Thanks For Nothing,” hitting all platforms May 2nd via Thriller Records. This track pulls no punches, delivering a brutally honest exploration of one sided relationships alongside a visually arresting music video that perfectly encapsulates the soul crushing experience of being constantly underestimated.
On the new single, Dead Eyes mentions:
“This is a song about coming to the realization that someone you’ve put a lot of time and energy into wouldn’t do the same for you. It’s a petty, sarcastic thank you note to everyone who made you feel like you weren’t enough.”

In a world of sugar coated pop hits, Dead Eyes serves up something far more potent—a raw, unapologetic look at the aftermath of emotional exploitation. "Thanks For Nothing" doesn’t just describe the pain of betrayal, it weaponizes it, transforming bitter 3 AM confessions and broken promises into ammunition for moving on. The chorus hits like a sledgehammer to the chest, becoming an anthem for anyone who’s ever given too much and received nothing in return.
The accompanying music video brilliantly visualizes this emotional battleground through a scenario that’s painfully familiar to anyone who has put themselves out there only to be dismissed. The band performs before a panel of judges whose snarky expressions, eye-rolls, and bored sighs mirror the very attitude the song rails against. As Dead Eyes pour their hearts out on stage, the judges’ apathetic reactions perfectly embody those people who make others feel perpetually inadequate, making the video a perfect visual companion to the track’s defiant message.
