The single is about tainted relationships and is a great precursor to the music they\u2019re going to be releasing in the future. The band is an interesting, well-thought-out mix of multiple genres, blurring the lines between old-school nu-metal, hardcore, and modern metal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Deadvelvetband2022.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  data-gnlv=\"hey\" src=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Deadvelvetband2022-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-89433\" width=\"653\" height=\"434\" srcset=\"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Deadvelvetband2022-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Deadvelvetband2022-600x399.jpg 600w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Deadvelvetband2022-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Deadvelvetband2022-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Deadvelvetband2022-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Deadvelvetband2022-2048x1363.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/themetalden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Deadvelvetband2022-1170x779.jpg 1170w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 653px) 100vw, 653px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">When the music for the track was being written, guitarist Eric (Stretch) Villeneuve was going for a trap vibe and hoping to infuse it with the get-on-your-feet energy that is present in hip hop. The structure pulls you in and spits you back out through its grooves and bumps and when the hook comes in it knocks you on your ass. The band explains the track:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>\u201c&#8217;The Dogs&#8217; is the first song that we decided to share with the world and we chose this one because we find it well represents the general sound and musical aesthetic that we\u2019re going for. It\u2019s a blistering tale of lost love and trying to push past all the pain in a relationship to make it work when, really, it would probably make more sense to just leave. It\u2019s about empty promises and broken dreams, and I think that\u2019s something that many people have been through and a message that almost all of us can connect with on some level.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Going forward,&nbsp;<strong>Dead Velvet<\/strong>&nbsp;plans to release a series of singles to show listeners what they&#8217;re capable of. They are making music that will get people on their feet and give them a reason to move.
