from the news desk …
The roar, the swagger, the electricity that comes out the speakers from the New York City band The Dead Exs transports you back to the gritty, dirty, ’70s garage- and blues-inspired rock ‘n’ roll that ruled the clubs of the Big Apple during the hey day of Joey Ramone and Iggy Pop.
Within the past year, The Dead Exs has emerged as a go-to band in the NYC and Jersey Shore music scene — being honored as an artist of the month by CMJ, Deli Magazine and most recently John Varvatos’ CBGB Live.
This month, The Dead Exs — consisting of David Pattillo and Wylie Wirth — have released a music video for their song “More Stuff” off their album Resurrection.
Below is a press release from the band’s label Bang Bang Boogaloo.
The Dead Exs, with their friend Danny Miller, shot this during their soundcheck at Asbury Lanes in Asbury Park, N.J. in summer 2011. The locals joined in the fun, and voila … we have a video. Thanks to the Little Lebowski in NYC for dp’s Jesus Quintana suit and Gary Breckheimer, who really is The Dude. Jai Mitchell made it all come together in the edit.
“More Stuff” is from The Dead Exs 2011 album Resurrection
