"And now for something completely different from these Greek 'proponents of hard rock and grievous genre assault.' They may have a point on both counts; this new single is psychedelic but also hooky and super heavy – in manner of QOTSA getting freaky (but groovy) after a big cigarette or two. Nice." CLASSIC ROCK MAGAZINE

Following the release of their 'Astypalea' single in June and “Animals” in September, Athens’s leading psych rock quartet Deaf Radio are thrilled to announce the official release of their sophomore album on 15th November via ihaveadrum records. As chief proponents of hard rock and grievous genre assault, ever since the release of their debut album in 2017, the band has been hailed by many as one of the most exciting alt-rock bands to emerge from Greece in recent memory. With Alarm garnering thousands of streams online and gaining ecstatic praise from sell-out crowds when performed live across Europe, expectation are high for the release of Modern Panic; a sprawling, exhilarating and breath-taking record that promises to leave no ear unturned: "Modern Panic isn’t just Alarm’s successor," explains guitarist, Panos Gklinos. "It’s a record through which we redefine the band’s identity. Composing it felt like looking at a mirror, suddenly noticing something is changed and then embracing it. Musically there are moments where raw and powerful elements come to surface and others in which we our reveal darker shades. Written between London, New York, Athens and Crete, the changes in the mood of the record are ferocious, while lyrically it reflects on modern society’s issues such as lonerism, homophobia, racism, drug use and social media addiction." Having shared bills with the likes of The Killers, All Them Witches, 1000mods and The Kills while touring in 2017 and 2018, Deaf Radio honed the sound and feel of these new songs on the road, live and in-person with thousands of fans in over thirty different cities across Europe. An endeavor which opened the band up to the most perfect proving grounds for testing new material, when seeking to make that perfect next record. "There's no doubt that Alarm's success set the bar high, but in reality, once you put a record out there it's all out of your control. People can resonate to it and give it a whole new meaning. It's a chess game, we made our move, now we can't wait to see how people react and how they will experience Modern Panic." Due for worldwide release on 15th November 2019 on ihaveadrum records.
