UNCLE ACID AND THE DEADBEATS DROP NEW SINGLE + VIDEO  “HOUSE BY THE GRAVE” — WATCH

NEW ALBUM SHAPES OF MIDNIGHT OUT SEPTEMBER 18 VIA KILLER CANDY RECORDS — PRE-ORDER HERE

UNCLE ACID AND THE DEADBEATS today release their new single, “House By The Grave,” the opening track on upcoming seventh full-length, Shapes Of Midnight, which drops September 18th via Killer Candy Records.

Watch the video here.

“This is one of my favourite songs that we’ve ever done and the perfect way to open up the album,” states Kevin Starrs. “‘Yonder stands the sinner!’ really sums it all up.”

A brilliantly macabre concept album partly inspired by Edgar Allen Poe’s The Masque Of The Red Death and the too-real nightmares of our modern age, Shapes Of Midnight refines the group’s “Evil Beatles” sound: A thrilling, expertly composed fusion of eerie harmonies, pop hooks, Thin Lizzy-esque twin-guitar brilliance, and the kind of fleet-footed heaviness that’s become their trademark.

Shapes Of Midnight was tracked at Abbey Road Studios — live to analogue tape, natch — in a blessed, three-day blitz in the company of storied engineer Chris Bolster, whose previous clients include Phil Spector, Ozzy Osbourne, and Paul McCartney. The band employed era-appropriate tech, from antique Neumann mics once breathed upon by the Fabs and the Floyd, to consoles and compressors from the peak era of recorded sound. The mastering, meanwhile, was completed by Grammy-nominated engineer Noel Summerville (The White Stripes, The Clash, My Bloody Valentine).

Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats spent their summer laying waste to festivals such as Sweden Rock, Hellfest, and Graspop and will tour North America, the UK, and Australia/New Zealand later this year. Further dates across Europe for next year to be announced soon. Find more information here.

ABOUT UNCLE ACID AND THE DEADBEATS:
The brainchild of Kevin Starrs, Uncle Acid and the deadbeats have been making extraordinary music since 2009. Always too bold and idiosyncratic to be easily pigeonholed, they emerged from an obscure corner of the labyrinthine British underground as shadowy purveyors of a new and overwhelmingly psychedelic take on the gritty rudiments of hard rock and downer blues. Steeped in both the wayward melodies, vocal harmonies and mischievous arrangements of psychedelic pop and the dissonant thunder and macabre imagery of proto-metal, Starrs’ greatest feat has been to create an entirely fresh sonic world from these most familiar of ingredients.

Uncle Acid and the deadbeats’ reputation was swiftly built on towering, riff-driven milestones like 2011’s breakthrough opus Blood Lust and its warped and wicked follow-up, Mind Control (2013); both released through Rise Above Records and subsequently showered with critical acclaim. The band established themselves as an exciting live act in 2013 with a string of high-profile festival appearances, culminating in a tour as sole support to Black Sabbath. By the time The Night Creeper was released in 2015, their mutation into heavy music’s most unmistakable eccentrics was complete, as they cranked up the melodic weirdness, rendering monstrous ideas into something approaching three-dimensional Technicolor.

Firmly established as cult heroes, Uncle Acid and the deadbeats consolidated The Night Creeper‘s triumph by touring the world extensively, including a string of sold out shows in the U.S., U.K., Europe and Australia. The dystopian soaked Wasteland followed, cementing their reputation, before releasing the bizarro “audio film” concept album Nell’ora Blu, which challenged their audience with its exploration of new sounds.

While most musicians seem content to chase their own (or other people’s tails), Uncle Acid and the deadbeats remain resolute individualists. Masterfully echoing the magical atmospheres of heavy music’s turbulent past while sounding entirely unlike anything else available to human ears. Having set up their own label Killer Candy Records, with the single “Don’t Let It Control You” and new album set for 2026, Uncle Acid and the deadbeats continues to be the deadliest show in town.
