Germany-based indie-punk band The Deadnotes released their new single “Hopeless Romantic” as well as its tongue-in-cheek music video. The band also announced that their new album ‘Courage’ will be released on February 14th, 2020 via 22Lives Records.

About the video, vocalist Darius Lohmüller stated:
“Hopeless Romantic is presented live at the “22Lives Late Night Show“ with obviously over-exaggerated talk show guests which nevertheless don’t seem to be too far-fetched from real life. People like these really do exist. They walk around and talk a ton of nonsense on TV and the radio and spread it unchallenged in numerous comment sections.”
Recorded at Crooked Rain Recording Studios in Leeds, the new album ‘Courage’ was produced by Bob Cooper (WSTR, Ducking Punches/Nervus), mixed by Beau Burchell (Saosin/The Bronx), and mastered by Mike Kalajian (Saosin/Prawn/Bouncing Souls). In the past the band has been pigeon-holed into the emo genre because of their reflective and self-explorative lyrical themes, but they have tried to move away from that on this release.
Still in their early 20s, the band has racked up an impressive number of achievements over the last few years. They formed the band at just 14 years old and have self-released both an EP and their debut album as well as having toured relentlessly through over 25 European countries. They have shared the stage with the likes of Boston Manor, Don Broco, Beach Slang, The Front Bottoms, and Such Gold.
The Deadnotes will be continuing their ruthless touring schedule in 2020 by hitting the road to support the release of ‘Courage’ starting in February. The extensive run of shows will cross Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, and Switzerland before coming to an end in April with three specially selected UK dates.
