Midlands post-hardcore outfit Reckoner have today released their new single “Three Can Keep A Secret If Two Are Dead”. Produced by the band’s very own Ed Bramford and Dave Tidmarsh and mastered by Mike Kalajian (Bad Omens, Saosin, Periphery) the track brims with tension, weaving a tale of trust, betrayal, and moral compromise.

Drawing inspiration from Sam Raimi’s 1998 thriller A Simple Plan, Reckoner explore the fragility of friendship under pressure. The refrain “How far down this road do we go, before the cracks in the tarmac begin to show” captures a world where secrets fester, loyalties fracture, and deceit corrodes the foundations of trust.

Speaking of the new single, Reckoner share, “‘Three Can Keep A Secret If Two Are Dead’ asks the hard question – how much can you trust even your closest of friends? The robotic chant of “Anxious, paranoid, faltering, destroy” sets an introspective tone before the song explodes into a violent & impactful intro.”

Hailing from the Midlands, Reckoner are a post-hardcore force carving their own path through the UK alternative scene. Fusing the unrelenting aggression of Underoath and Every Time I Die with cinematic scores and intricate sound design, the band create a sound that is as visceral as it is immersive.

Their debut EP I Am What You Will Become made an immediate impact, earning multiple spins on BBC Radio 1 and strong Spotify playlist placements, cementing them as a rising name to watch. Known for their raw, high-energy live performances, Reckoner wasted no time breaking onto festival main stages and sharing bills with heavyweights such as Heart Of A Coward and The Five Hundred.

With the release of their gripping new single ‘Three Can Keep A Secret If Two Are Dead’, Reckoner are poised to push their sonic intensity to new heights. A band unafraid to experiment, they continue to blend ferocity with cinematic atmosphere – earning a reputation as one of the UK’s most promising and dynamic new acts.
