Celebrated pop-punk group Four Year Strong has made their triumphant return with their latest sonic effort, “Dead End Friend.” Marking their first new music of the year and following the re-recorded release of their breakout album Enemy Of The World, which quickly became a staple of the Warped Tour scene upon its release in 2010, “Dead End Friend” showcases the quintet at their prime.
“Dead End Friend” not only highlights Four Year Strong’s signature blend of punk, hardcore, and pop-punk elements that seamlessly weave together across the track, but it also serves as a reminder of the group’s effortless prowess. The gnarly guitar work in “Dead End Friend” pierces through the airwaves with electrifying precision, while the bombastic drums create a thunderous heartbeat that pulses through the song, underscoring the intensity and urgency that have become hallmarks of Four Year Strong‘s music.
