Fusing crushing grooves, atmospheric heaviness, emotionally charged melodies, and deeply introspective lyricism, the band delivers modern heavy rock and metal that is both sonically punishing and emotionally resonant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their debut release,&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;Victimless,&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;introduces listeners to a band unafraid to confront uncomfortable truths. Driven by massive riffs, haunting textures, and an undeniable sense of urgency, &#8220;Victimless&#8221; examines the dangerous cycle of self justification, guilt, and personal accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">DEAD\/ASLEEP is a heavy rock\/metal band featuring members from Drowning Pool, Fire From The Gods, Flyleaf, Live, and Crobot. Combining crushing grooves, massive hooks, and darker emotional themes, the band\u2019s debut singles \u201cBetter Off Dead\u201d and \u201cVictimless\u201d explore paranoia, identity, and survival through a raw, atmospheric sound built for fans of emotionally charged heavy music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"nv-iframe-embed\"><iframe title=\"Dead \/ Asleep - Victimless (Official Video)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fQW-_mL6Zag?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">MEMBERS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Jasen Moreno &#8211; Vocals<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">JamesonTeat &#8211; Guitar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Pat Seals &#8211; Bass<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Dan Ryan &#8211; Drums<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">LISTEN ON:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/o4ipothbb.cc.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?f=001goJEOy_CuZ_lzY52aQQL_v817ggZS7nWJQm1vyuYvSfXF4CZo10X0ZGv-of0Ic1YAneMNLrsEjWThtyUgRTD9nVwCS55x-T6K0Mr9GwXFnBzrZHUgV2bmN2PfEPhDSODoWFP20az5Cb2bmlzH_box9lhzlPaSWRFlQINqieuk-SPnT-2tMRWudXQ3rliNx5h92BvZvdpggmLD47xiQgiPZRqmbmhAa9fOptzO6Vc_cqArDKNwXW6CzzOuuF7rTIYOeqCf1r5ytsNYoUTXC1CUQ==&amp;c=qAkcu6BXvIcJVGJryY3FcHc5-U3p7QZn_EqRqqXaGWoCkhNF2E_LmA==&amp;ch=RCc-FgQ1Udz1SVckGi0hQuqQqQglY9iqatTCxDvplsGD1sO6UEAUxw==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>SPOTIFY<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/o4ipothbb.cc.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?f=001goJEOy_CuZ_lzY52aQQL_v817ggZS7nWJQm1vyuYvSfXF4CZo10X0ZGv-of0Ic1YtaQQyFBBUggbQk9EuclvlO-R6Pz7TbALrtyB1U9JRD81fc79lle3sP2fxxNLKtoJik7gBc-2FPASQkMMd8_RDAlHN-RQsWiqGoXN4nJOJpEMCZW1pTp_fnSCZgMMevXXTodNU3-VZaU=&amp;c=qAkcu6BXvIcJVGJryY3FcHc5-U3p7QZn_EqRqqXaGWoCkhNF2E_LmA==&amp;ch=RCc-FgQ1Udz1SVckGi0hQuqQqQglY9iqatTCxDvplsGD1sO6UEAUxw==\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>APPLE MUSIC<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-spotify wp-block-embed-spotify wp-embed-aspect-21-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Dead\/Asleep\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/artist\/3BFvq1lIXi3xzK2cLno6Oq?si=abmp-v_9Svqs54LfXcJAEA&amp;nd=1&amp;dlsi=7c6ebbe08af042ae&amp;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Victimless&#8221;&nbsp;is a cautionary tale of the many possible perils of immersing one\u2019s self in sympathetic introspection and\/or the lengths one may go to in order to justify karmic debt accrual.
