AKA DEMONS TO RATIONS
AKA DER MENSTRUATIONS

“Demonstrations” is the first full-band release from NY's Deadname. This record is a snapshot of everything we've put together since forming in 2016. Deadname initially started as a weekly jam session between two acquaintances that evolved into a two-person electropunk friendship and, after local gigs and a short US tour with just a guitar, mic, mixer, and backing tracks on an Android, we found a killer rhythm section and morphed into a motley four-piece. Though we all share a queer identity, our main unifying concept is that we like shit moshable, visceral, and, boundary-pushing. We want you to feel this, as we felt it.

[Begin image description. An acrylic painting on stretched canvas. An imperfect square of varying vibrant red hues against a white backdrop. From the center down, the square is chaotically textured, which deepens the hues. Contrasting black percolates over the bottom and bottom-right edge. In streams of black and red, the colors trickle down to the bottom. End image description.]⁣
