Picture this—a young woman, stranded on an island off the coast of Maine, watches in horror as the world crumbles into a full-blown zombie outbreak. Among the undead rising is her husband, lost at sea years ago, now crawling back to her. Meanwhile, an alien craft looms in the sky, hinting that this apocalypse is way bigger than just earthly horrors.
“Back From The Dead” is synth-driven, guitar-laced alt-pop that blends melancholy with high-energy anthemic vibes. The chrous is hypnotic and echoes the eerie yet exhilarating theme: “Reanimated, we’re coming back again.”
The shimmering production and crisp vocals are reminiscent of bands like Valley, Bad Suns, and LANY, but with a fresh, cinematic twist.
