THEORY OF A DEADMAN
Today, chart-topping veterans THEORY OF A DEADMAN are proud to release their new single, "Funeral Song," taken from the upcoming EP, 'Part 1: Funeral Songs,' set for release on September 4, 2026 via ONErpm.
Marking a new chapter for the band, comprising Tyler Connolly, Dave Brenner, Dean Back, and Joe Dandeneau, the upcoming EP delivers their signature mix of gritty riffs, anthemic hooks, and unfiltered lyricism with a renewed sense of urgency.
On the new track, Connolly shares:
“We’ve all had that person that we wish would go away or just crawl up and die. That's the anthem here with 'Funeral Song.' But like a lot of things we do over here at the THEORY headquarters, it’s to be taken in jest as we always promote taking the moral high ground. Ironically after all these years this is the first song we’ve written about a 'DEADMAN.'"
THEORY OF A DEADMAN have carved out their own lane as one of modern rock’s most unapologetic forces, racking up multi-platinum hits, chart-topping albums, and sold-out shows worldwide. Blending witty, candid songwriting with undeniable riffs and massive melodic hooks, the Canadian quartet—Tyler Connolly, Dean Back, Dave Brenner, and Joe Dandeneau—have built a career defined by both attitude and staying power.
From fan favourites like “Santa Monica” to gold-certified hit “All Or Nothing,” platinum singles “Hate My Life” and “Bitch Came Back,” and the double-platinum “Not Meant To Be,” the band has delivered a steady stream of rock staples. They’ve landed twelve Top 10 hits on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart, including four #1 singles: “Bad Girlfriend,” “Lowlife,” “History Of Violence,” and “Rx (Medicate).” The latter stands as the biggest hit of their career, earning a nomination for “Rock Song of the Year” at the iHeartRadio Music Awards.
Along the way, TOAD have achieved two Top 10 debuts on the Billboard 200, four Top 5 debuts on the Canadian Albums Chart, and multiple Juno Award nominations, while drawing praise from outlets including American Songwriter, Billboard, and Classic Rock Magazine.
Now, THEORY OF A DEADMAN are ready to further their prolific career with the release of their new EP, 'Part 1: Funeral Songs,' out on September 4th with ONErpm.
