This late in the night I was really in need of something invigorating and Dead Riot delivered. With a mixed-up swag comprising of old school rockabilly, melodic punk rock and rude boy reggae, these Brisbane chaps played with viguor and passion, even if the room wasn't as full as it should have been for a band of this calibre - Drum Media
Local young Brisbane outfit Dead Riot lift off with a bang, their H-block'esque rocky/punk sound has me interested from the the opening track 'Can't Stop the Killing,' doesn't take long before that one is stuck in your head, similar deal with rockabilly'ish 'Headroom.' A promising debut from a young bunch, check them out if you like no-bullshit rock/punk. Great film clip for the single as well. On the rise! - Bombshell zine

Bio
Over the past 5 or so years, Dead Riot have rocked, partied and exploded their way up and down the east coast of Australia. Be it via festival, club gig,Tupperware party, bar mitzvah or even prime time TV in Japan (no, really),these guys go where their music takes them. The sound has grown from its original punk rock & activist roots, into a fun, energetic experience of hip shaking rock’n’roll. Their dynamic and engaging stage antics set them in the light as true performers, sure to raise the proverbial eyebrows of even the most post-modern of music enthusiasts. With consistent headline slots, sell out shows and a solid fan-base, their mission to bring the energy back to rock is definitely well received. Don’t miss out on the Dead Riot experience!
