Rising metaphysical metalcore powerhouse THE PRETTY WILD have unleashed their new track “living ded” and the accompanying official video (via Sumerian Records). Prior to today, the band released the official music video for “sLeepwALKeR“, which climbed the TikTok Viral Music Charts to #43 with 22.6k organic creations on the platform. The sister duo next shared “Button Eyes” which continues to climb the ranks at Active Rock radio. Most recently, The Pretty Wild dropped their banger “OMENS” and official music video. Altogether, the tracks have clocked over 15 million streams on Spotify alone and nearly 2 million views on YouTube. Speaking about today’s release, Jules Wylde shares: “‘Living ded’ is about reclaiming power through an intense and seemingly unbeatable struggle. When you’re dragged to your darkest depths, almost into existential collapse, and you find yourself suspended in this kind of weird liminal space. Some choose to stay there, but others self-realise the suffering, refuse to disappear, and choose to rise again as something new raw, almost ghostly or unkillable. You can hear that resurrection point in the lyric ‘in death we wake’.” Jyl Wylde continues: “‘Living ded’ is about the death of the projection society built to contain you in. It’s for the moment you realise the world insidiously shapes people through subconscious dynamics into masks they begin to mistake for who they are. The vampiric theme interwoven in “living ded” addresses the fact paradoxically that we’re all parasites in each other’s myth. We feed off validation, guilt, and projection until the self rots into shape. And we do it to ourselves. That’s the part no one wants to take accountability for.” Stream ‘living ded’ HERE.
