Being Dead announce their forthcoming album, EELS
Being Dead — the Austin, TX-based duo consisting of Falcon Bitch and Shmoofy — have announced the new album, EELS, alongside the lead single, "Firefighters".
Accompanied by a URZULKA directed video, which “came together through a group hallucination.” The band says of the track, “we love marbles and outdoor play and decided to get it on video for y'all. Making this was like creating an intricate handshake with all your buddies—riddled with inside jokes and giggles.”
When Horses Would Run, Being Dead’s debut record released in 2023, took years to release. The final product was expertly polished, and at odds with the live rowdiness they’d cultivated a reputation for throughout Austin and beyond across seven years of being a band. For the next one, they knew they’d have to do things differently. They decamped to Los Angeles for two weeks to record with GRAMMY winning producer John Congleton, writing songs for the record until days before they left.
