DED — Joe Cotela (vocals); Alex Adamcik (guitar); Kyle Koelsch (bass); and Matt Reinhard (drums) — will release a deluxe version of their September 2025-released album RESENT via UNFD on July 3. Pre-order it here.
RESENT: Deluxe Edition will feature unreleased tracks and demos, adding 11 new tracks to the original 12-track album and offering fans a deeper look into the creative sessions that ultimately shaped RESENT.
Today, the band shares the visualizer for "Weapon." Watch and listen here.
The song is a crushing, high-energy opener that immediately re-establishes the band's signature, groove-centric sound while setting the tone for the expanded release. Lyrically, "Weapon" captures that cathartic spirit head-on: "Let it all out right now / Here in the sound / There is no gravity, there is no ground / Fly / Use the music as a weapon."
Blending aggression, atmosphere, and emotional urgency, "Weapon" is both a mission statement for the Deluxe Edition and a reminder of the connection DED continues to build between chaos, vulnerability, and release — and with their fans.
"This is a straight-up quintessential DED track, encompassing all of the things the band is known for sonically," offers Cotela. "Thematically, it's about how truly powerful music can be. It has the strength and capability to carry us through the trials and tribulations of life — through self-empowerment, reinforcement, or even escapism. Music can raise awareness, unify people, and serve as the safest place for both the artist and the listener to exist freely beyond the constraints of being in a body."
As for the deluxe edition as a whole, the first five songs are fully realized B-sides that could have easily earned their place on the original release. Produced by the band over the last three years, the tracks were finally mixed and mastered by bassist Kyle Koelsch at the band's own creative headquarters, Trash Island Studios, in Phoenix.
As the tracklist unfolds, the Deluxe Edition dives further into DED's vault — showcasing raw demos, experimental ideas, and stylistic departures that reveal a broader spectrum of the band's creative identity. Some tracks lean heavily into unexpected influences, others remain stripped-down and unpolished by design, while a few push into completely uncharted territory for the band altogether.
More than just a collection of extras, RESENT: Deluxe Edition serves as a look behind the curtain — an honest snapshot of the risks, moods, and sonic possibilities explored throughout the making of the record.
It's "must-listen" for fans.
