Asked what it is he wants audiences to take away from Fission, the second album from Dead Poet Society, lead singer Jack Underkofler offers eight small but powerful words: “We want to leave them with the truth.” After a decade defining, redefining and perfecting their art, where Dead Poet Society find themselves on the eve of their sophomore release is much clearer. Dead Poet Society are a uniquely captivating group, rock’s next great breakout act, with Fission set to capture the hearts and challenge the minds of fans old and new on the journey ahead. Following on the heels of their acclaimed debut full-length –!– (2021), Fission seeks to unpack the personal journey its creators have been on during that ride to date. Fission, as its title hints, is a 13-track study of personal change and the turbulence of growth that, as Underkofler attests, takes “a microscopic and broad look at the events that changed who we are.” For fans of Highly Suspect, Palaye Royale, Cleopatrick, Tool, Biffy Clyro.
