UK industrial/electronic force j:dead continues the momentum of his ambitious year‑long release campaign with "Disgusting", the second of twelve singles arriving via Infacted Recordings. Where its predecessor, "Pressure" (which you can check out HERE), struck with external tension and urgency, this new chapter dives inward, exposing the uncomfortable truths that surface when complacency takes hold.
Musically, "Disgusting" is a razor‑edged hybrid of industrial bite, synthpop sheen, and trance‑driven euphoria. Grinding electronics collide with soaring melodic hooks, creating a track built equally for introspection and the dancefloor. Its pulse is immediate, its atmosphere darkly addictive — a balance j:dead has increasingly mastered.
Lyrically, the single confronts the moment of recognising one’s own decline: the laziness, the comfort, the slow erosion of self that becomes impossible to ignore. Delivered with j:dead’s trademark emotional intensity, the song transforms self‑critique into catharsis, turning vulnerability into something anthemic.
With each release, j:dead strengthens his position as one of the most compelling voices in modern dark electronics. His fusion of sharp production, commanding choruses, and raw vocal expression continues to resonate across both personal and communal spaces — a trajectory that promises a powerful twelve‑month evolution.
Already a familiar presence on major European festival stages — Amphi Festival, Wave Gotik Treffen, Plage Noire — j:dead’s revitalised sound is engineered for live impact. The next opportunity to catch him on stage will be on 30 May at the Strange Day Festival at the Grafton Arms in Manchester (UK), alongside Strange Futures, KK Verkefni, Trianglecuts, and Mother Suspiria. Listen to the previously revealed track, "Pressure", HERE. Link

"With Hypocrisy, I'm very "home", but with Pain, it's an adventure, just like going into the jungle only with a knife and no glass of water and trying to survive." - Peter Tägtgren
"When I make a song, I know I could do it better, but I'm happy with it. It doesn't have to be perfect, and I like it when it's not. That's why I can make it that way." - Rapha Hell
"I think it's basically a mutation of a lot of different things — like a hybrid creature nobody quite knows how to categorise. A heretic, I guess." - Håvard Ellefsen (Mortiis)
