“There's nothing better than witnessing a band hit their stride in real time, and Dehd are doing just that.

Poetry is messy, unapologetic and vividly emotional. The band has described their latest as a soundtrack for "openin”
“The Chicago trio’s fifth and latest album doesn’t find them breaking new ground; rather, it’s an enchanting, familiar exercise in perfecting the formula that’s made them so beloved in the first place.”
“With more ambitious melodies, bolder harmonies, and compositional complexity, the Chicago trio’s new album hypercharges their already electric sound.”
