Following an embryonic performance of the piece, Deal secured a grant to expand it to include music created especially for the work. “The idea was to mix spoken-word with punk music” explains Deal, who hooked up with drummer \u003cstrong\u003eShane Zweygardt\u003c\/strong\u003e and guitarist \u003cstrong\u003eAbe Brennan\u003c\/strong\u003e during lockdown and began kicking the concept around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut what became Dead Pioneers didn’t truly take shape until Deal connected with bassist \u003cstrong\u003eLee Tesche\u003c\/strong\u003e, who you may know from righteous Atlantan post-punks \u003cstrong\u003eAlgiers\u003c\/strong\u003e. Unlikely as it sounds, a conversation between Tesche and Deal about \u003cstrong\u003eSleaford Mods\u003c\/strong\u003e evolved into a creative connection that’s now three albums deep; the arrival of guitarist \u003cstrong\u003eJoshua Rivera\u003c\/strong\u003e made the quintet quorate. “Josh is Mexican-American,” says Deal. “He is also inherently indigenous, under a different set of circumstances within colonialism. But I consider him to be my indigenous brother. We spend a lot of time trying to figure out how all of this fits together.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA miraculous, natural chemistry made this supposed one-off project an actual band almost as soon as they cut what became their 2023 self-titled debut album (“We approached it like I approach my visual art: execute quickly, first thought is best thought,” Deal says), but they didn’t necessarily take it seriously until, unexpectedly, the outside world did. “I was like, we’ve made this record – what should I do with it? Put it online?” Deal remembers. The response was vigorously positive, and soon came demands to commit this noise to vinyl. A first thousand-copy pressing sold out in minutes. “So then we pressed another thousand,” he adds, still marvelling at it all. “And then they were gone, too.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat followed was “a series of strange accidents” that led to the group signing to Hassle, befriending \u003cstrong\u003eJello Biafra\u003c\/strong\u003e and touring with kindred spirits like Pennywise, Propaghandi, even Pearl Jam. “Punk-rock had made everything seem so accessible when I was a kid,” says Deal. “Like, simply having the balls to get up on stage and stage dive and then be carried off by people that become your best friends once they get your feet back on the ground.” Now, punk-rock was reaching out its hands to Dead Pioneers and pulling them onto larger and larger stages. The group returned that favour by simply getting better and better: their second album, 2025’s PO$T AMERICAN, was sharper, angrier, funnier than the debut, a riot riveted with punch-a-Nazi thrills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd now, \u003cem\u003eWagon Burner\u003c\/em\u003e, their fearsome third album. Described by Deal as “more collaborative”, it’s a heavier, harder but also more accessible set, vicious hooks scattered among the punk-rock melee and guest appearances by kindred spirits \u003cstrong\u003eCheap Perfume\u003c\/strong\u003e (on the righteous ‘\u003cem\u003eNazi Teeth\u003c\/em\u003e’), The Interrupters (on the shout-a-long anthem ‘\u003cem\u003eNever Alone\u003c\/em\u003e’) and, bringing it back to the group’s beginnings, Sleaford Mods (on the searing slow-burn of ‘\u003cem\u003eThe Worst Among Us\u003c\/em\u003e’). The world might be darkening by the day, but Dead Pioneers are rising to that miserable occasion, casting their empowering light into the gloom.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFFO\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/em\u003e IDLES, Bad Religion, Amyl and the Sniffers, Lambrini Girls, Bob Vylan, Soft Play, The Interrupters.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hassle Records","offers":[{"title":"LP - Vinyl - Dinked Edition #403","offer_id":57647217803609,"sku":"SDZ-08786","price":35.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/3455\/0945\/files\/b5f8667925dabc0bebb3b6d727186a4d.jpg?v=1777479904","url":"https:\/\/spindizzyrecords.com\/products\/dead-pioneers-wagon-burner-lp-vinyl-dinked-edition-403","provider":"Spindizzy Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
