Underdogs – Knockin On Hell's Door feat. Nick Oliveri

Their first single! A battering ram if ever there was one! It’s not just Knockin On Hell’s Door, it’s knocking it the fuck down! And it does so in grand fashion featuring the mighty vocals of Nick Oliveri! Immediately giving this new Underdogs track a Mondo Generator vibe and an incredibly feral attitude! The door is off its hinges, shit, the entire frame is shattered! This is one hell of a promising single for the new album Nine Ties coming out on October 25th on Go Down Records! Yeaah!!!

PR Wire: 

On October 25th, stoner/heavy rock trio UNDERDOGS will release their brand new full-length record "Nine Ties", which will be coming out via Go Down Records. In support of the new album, the band has released the first single titled “Knockin On Hell's Door”, along with an electrifying music video featuring a special guest appearance by the legendary Nick Oliveri (Mondo Generator, Kyuss).

"Knockin' On Hell's Door originated from a guitar and drums jam, with a punk-core rhythm reminiscent of Mondo Generator's first album", vocalist Simone Vian comments. "In my mind, Oliveri's vocals would have been perfect... When Go Down Records gave us the opportunity to open for a Nick Oliveri gig, we submitted the song to him. He keenly agreed to sing it and provided us with perfect vocals in a quick but effective backstage recording, demonstrating great humility and professionalism. Shortly after, we performed it together on stage, and the footage ended up in the song's official video."


UNDERDOGS’ upcoming new album represents the band’s rebirth after a long hiatus - Their comeback features the heavy sound of the early days, combined with greater technical awareness and a new hardcore punk attitude. Taking a wink at genre clichés without becoming addicted, they mix different elements to create their trademark. The new songs are clearly drawn from the 90s and have been influenced by post-punk and post-metal. The band’s mission is to refresh its roots with a contemporary approach.

"Nine Ties" will be coming out on October 25 via Go Down Records and is now available for pre-order.
