deadman has just announced that they will release a best-of compilation in December 2021 (no exact date given yet). The tracks will be completely re-recorded, and what’s more: there will be one new song as well!
The lineup for this release will be the same as when they went on hiatus in 2006, so Kazuya (bass) and Toki (drums) will take part in the recordings. I can’t wait!!
They also announced a short tour for the beginning of 2022 (with the usual support members):
deadman 2022 tour 「毒と薬と炉の鼠」
2022/1/22(土) 名古屋 CLUB QUATTRO
2022/2/6(日) 渋谷 CLUB QUATTRO
2022/2/11(金/祝) 梅田 CLUB QUATTRO
I’m sure all of us who didn’t get the cali DVD they came out with would kill for a new live recording of these guys. That’d be great to have next, maybe next year.
Their livestreamed 2-man with lynch. can still be purchased and watched from the archive till end-of-day September 22nd, for those craving for some current deadman action (there’s even a cover session at the end with both bands).
