Struggling With Modern Life? Die Tired Just Summed It All Up in One Explosive Grunge Rock Track!

Die Tired is back—and they’re not pulling punches. Their latest single, “(So Called) Complex,” out now via Sodeh Records, is a searing alt-rock gut-punch wrapped in progressive textures and grunge grit. Equal parts raw emotion and technical finesse, the track finds the modern rock outfit grappling with the digital age’s constant noise, façade-building, and emotional fatigue.

From the opening line—“What do you think about the way I’m thinking now?”—the song barrels into an unfiltered look at insecurity, identity, and tech-fueled paranoia. It’s a lyrical punch to the gut that taps into the pressures of performative living, where curated lives and constant validation feed a cycle of anxiety and disconnection.

But Die Tired doesn’t leave listeners in the dark. The powerful chorus—“All our blood runs red”—cuts through the chaos with a message of unity and humanity. Beneath the noise, the screens, the image control, we’re all the same. We all bleed. We all break. We all try to make sense of it.

Sonically, the track flexes the band’s evolution. Intricate, prog-infused guitars collide with soaring vocals and tight, emotional percussion. It’s introspective without losing its punch, and cerebral without losing its soul.

“(So Called) Complex” is more than a song—it’s a mirror. And Die Tired isn’t just making noise; they’re making a statement.

“A great quality punk rock, an exciting and fun song ideal to listen to in a bar with friends at night, with striking guitar solos and very well tuned vocals in my opinion everything is perfect wouldn’t change anything it’s ready to be heard worldwide, we will definitely publish it on our website and add the song to our YouTube and Spotify playlists and add the song to the Web Radio schedule later today.” – Penhasco Rock

“If it’s been a while since you’ve discovered an alt-rock track that tugs on the heartstrings as heavily as the rabid bass strings, prepare yourselves for the emotionally subjugating melodies in Die Tired’s latest single, Play, and leave the misery of responsibility behind.

With none of the pretension of a powerhouse and all of the talent, getting suckered into the anthemic soul of Play is non-optional. There are some serious virtuosic stripes through the hard-rock solos. But the filthy grungey distortion in the bass and Mathew DeAngelis’ vocals, which could send EVERY grown-up The All-American Rejects fan into swoon mode, the gravity of Play lingers in the giddying catharsis.” – Amelia Vanergast at A&R Factory
