Dead Letter Circus

Watching someone on their first listen to Brisbane alternative breakthroughs Dead Letter Circus searching to come up with a neat description is fascinating viewingŠ ³It¹s kind of likeŠ no wait, it¹s more of aŠ Wow, I have no idea what it is, but it¹s differentŠ² Part of the beauty of the soaring, sing-a-long choruses, chiming atmospherics and delay soaked tones of Dead Letter Circus is their escape from easy classification via labels or scenes. But with a #2 record on debut, the message is clear - it¹s music that resonates.

What¹s that, you want the recipe though? Well, take quality musicianship, melt melodies that soar over modern rock tones, then whip audiences across the land into a frenzy with an unrelenting touring schedule. Marinate in very strong independent EP & single sales, a heaving army of passionate supporters won from festival battles and airwave solicitation, and bring to the boil with incendiary Big Day Out & Come Together performances on full heat. Serve hot and compare result to Muse, U2 and Mars Volta, but be aware that Dead Letter Circus is the rarest of flavours, brilliant but ultimately indescribable, best tasted for yourself.

In a whirlwind 2 years, Dead Letter Circus have ascended to the forefront of alternative rock, their fresh take on good rock songs landing powerhouse Australian booking agent New World Artists. Dead Letter Circus have struck a chord locally and abroad with their self-titled EP and Next in Line/Reaction double A side single, signed a worldwide publishing deal with Universal, signed with monster agency CAA for North America, showcased for several US major labels, and continued to peddle their wares to all parts of the country. And while they may not fit into the constraints of a tidy town genre, there is a certainty amongst the creative confusionŠ just one spoonful of Dead Letter Circus will leave you hungry for moreŠ The much anticipated debut album This is the Warning hit #2 on the national ARIA charts, with singles Big added to Triple J radio and One Step to all major commercial and alternative stations. With the Dead Letter Circus national album launch tour sold out, the band¹s first video getting airplay, and the track One Step starting to cross over with a sensational high impact video, 2010 will continue to create new milestones for the hottest rock band in Australia.
