Dead Icarus (ft former Atreyu vocalist Alex Varkatzas) sign to MNRK Heavy, unveil first single

Dead Icarus, the latest venture from former Atreyu lead vocalist Alex Varkatzas, has recently inked a worldwide deal with MNRK Heavy. The band has wasted no time in sharing their new single "Sellout," accompanied by a music video. The project was started back in 2021, revealed around the time of Atreyu's eighth studio album Baptize, with Varkatzas expressing interest in starting a "super heavy band." Now, we finally have the result of those efforts.
Varkatzas says:
"I am beyond excited and grateful for DEAD ICARUS to be joining the MNRK Heavy family. MNRK understands my musical vision and has provided me with free reign over all aspects of my musical journey. I cannot wait to share what has been created as a result of this unadulterated trust. This is the most honest, painful, angry, and optimistic music I have ever created. This is my road to redemption and the truth."
Scott Givens, MNRK's SVP of Rock & Metal, added:
"Alex's new project has our whole Heavy team excited. He has put together an incredible project with an amazing group of musicians."

Post CommentI haven't listened to the song, but based on the title, I assume this is a Reel Big Fish cover?
with that title I wonder who the song was directed at lol
I love reading about how the non-binary community made up their own words like "terf" and "cis". The Metalcore community was always closeted gay so they get to make up words too.
All sellout songs are about that guy in Rage Against the Machine who's wears a trucker cap and cop sunglasses.
You're telling me this ISNT a bleeding through demo from 20 years ago ?
the f*ck is this retard doing with his hands?
Need more Suicide Notes and Butterfly Kisses.
That skeleton has terrible trigger discipline, almost as terrible as the song itself.
this photo is more iconic than the minor threat album cover
All I hear is an As I Lay Dying b-side rip off. Are we sure Tim isn't ghost writing this band?
Must be a great song if the comments on yt are turned off
Donald Trump here. I know when stuff sucks -- just look at my hair! And this sucks almost as hard as the great cheeseborger shortage of 1963.
The REAL Donald Trump here. I cover my mouth like that too when someone tries to stick a vegetable in it.
This is GREAT. Iconic singer. Drums are fantastic
just watched video. comments on YT work just fine
