Los Angeles alt-punks Death Lens, let loose on new single “Power”. Fresh off a tour with Militarie Gun, the punchy new single is up next to be featured in the latest edition of the Skate video game series from EA. As Death Lens’ first new music since 2024’s Cold World, the track’s hooky guitar riffs and uplifting lyrics are a positive omen to close out a tumultuous year. Frontman Bryan Torres comments: “I know the world feels out of balance, nothing seems certain, and waiting isn’t an option anymore. We can’t let time dictate our choices or our purpose. The world has never waited for anyone, so we stopped waiting too. That’s POWER. Strength. Resilience. When life feels bleak, we push harder for what we want and the vision we hold for ourselves. A song for anyone who loves it fast, with a message that lifts you up.” Check out the music video for “Power” below, directed by Marco Hernandez and featuring pro skaters Tristan Funkhouser, Tyler Pacheco, Zach Allen, Marley Humphrey, and O’Conner Nelson. “Power”

Following the rhythmic bark of Cold World, a poignant album that deals with social and political unrest, Death Lens continue to bear the torch for Southern California’s melodic punk tinged with hardcore and social accountability. “Power” is the latest offering in their ever-evolving journey as a band and as people, confronting burnout and feeling like you can’t get up after you’ve been consistently knocked down. Nevertheless, Torres proclaims, “the world waits for no one” and compels listeners to get back on our feet and look out for one another. The band will be back in Europe and the UK in 2026 for Summer festivals. A few dates are already announced, including Berlin Breakout and Vainstream in Germany, and Mighty Sounds Festival in the Czech Republic. More shows will follow soon. Since 2012, Death Lens have aimed to be in your ears at all times. They hide their ferocity underneath a thick veneer of style until the energy and chaos of one of their live shows leaves every audience member disarmed and forever changed. While they started as your typical party garage punks, the band evolved to using their platform to speak on living in heavily policed areas, immigration reform, and using resources to uplift communities. “One world, one community”. Death Lens is comprised of Bryan Torres (vocals), Jhon Reyes (guitar, backing vocals), Tony Rangel (drums), and Ernie Gutierrez (guitar). |
