Program the Dead give it to you like you need it. Live wire rock-n-roll played by hard luck poets with nothing - except everything - to lose. Earlier this year, the band released Ginger, their first fully independent full length. Produced by William DuVall (Alice in Chains, Comes With The Fall), Ginger is the sound of Raw Power-era Stooges dragging Revolver-era Beatles down the Sunset Strip on a death trip bender. With a young Bono trapped in Mick Jagger's body serving the drinks.
Armed with a live show that must be seen to be believed, Program the Dead are 'spreading PtDs' across the country. The band has since released their music catalog in its entirety absolutely FREE on ProgramTheDead.com Make sure to check the site out, and make a donation if you're diggin' the tunes. Support music, keep this train movin'.
Resistance is futile.
"Reminiscent of rocks early heyday, Program the Dead revive ballsy, straight-forward rock n roll with a vibe long forgotten and tighten the screws to be relevant in a digital world of fleeting interests and temporary buzz."
-Kings of A&R
"The future may be unwritten, but you can hedge your bets that Program the Dead will be a significant part of it. Prepare for PTD to blow your feeble little mind." -NIPP
"Their music is gritty and it gets your blood pumping, like you can take on the world. And when you hear Program the Dead live, you feel as though you’ve actually seen a rock show — a rare event now."
-Lori Haught, Downtownexpress.com
"Like a fireball of raw power and sexual ambition, Program the Dead crackles with life."
-Decoy Music
"this band succeeds at every turn."
-Rough Edge
"They ooze 'rockstar' out of every pore. This band is un-fucking-deniable." -Altsounds
words can not describe how thankful i am to have met you wonderfully amazing and talented guys. i wish you all the best with whatever comes next. Take care.
What a sad day, but I'm hopeful that there are better things in store for you. I know we'll be hearing more from each of you down the road. You fought hard and I'm sorry that you sacrificed so much for your amazing art.
You had a damned unique sound. (Just listen the guitar & bass on Reductionist for proof of that!) You were unstoppable live. Thank you for all the great shows and memories. If you ever crave another Texas choc. cake, just let me know!
wishing you lots of love and respect always, chris
