Southern California-based alt hard rock band DEAD POET SOCIETY — Jack Underkofler (vocals/guitar); Jack Collins (guitar); Will Goodroad (drums); and Dylan Brenner (bass) — return with the video for new song “Sinner Systems.” The song was produced by Paul Meany (Twenty-One Pilots, Pierce The Veil) and mixed by Adam Hawkins (Turnstile, Yungblud, Twenty-One Pilots).
The voyeuristic video is as tense as the song’s angular and low-end riffing.
Watch it here.
“‘Sinner Systems’ is a dark, brooding song that blends heavy, detuned fretless grooves with addictive, hedonistic lyrics that hold a mirror up to modern excess and emotional numbness,” the band explains. “We explored the duality of the detuned and the melodic and came up with a song that is a cinematic journey for the listener.”
Dead Poet Society will hit the road with Highly Suspect later this month. All forthcoming dates are below.

Dead Poet Society have captured (and held) the rock world’s attention with their head-turning debut album, 2021’s -!- (said as “The Exclamation Album”) and their equally adored sophomore effort, 2024’s FISSION — both released via Spinefarm. The band has enjoyed 200 million cumulative global streams, several Top 10 radio singles, and key playlisting while appearing at major festivals the world over, including Welcome to Rockville, Sonic Temple, Grasoop, Reading and Leeds, and 2000Trees. Dead Poet Society have toured with alt rock powerhouses Badflower, Biffy Clyro, and Highly Suspect, and more. The band has ultimately established itself as an intense live act not to be missed, with press accolades ranging from The New York Post to Riff to Rock Sound to American Songwriter to New Noise to Guitar World.
The band’s DNA-distinct sound finds them occupying a lane all their own — and that’s just how they like it.
