Today, following the success of their recent single "Barricade," chart-topping veterans THEORY OF A DEADMAN are proud to announce their new EP, 'Part 1: Funeral Songs,' set for release on September 4, 2026 via ONErpm.
Marking a new chapter for the band, comprising Tyler Connolly, Dave Brenner, Dean Back, and Joe Dandeneau, the upcoming EP delivers their signature mix of gritty riffs, anthemic hooks, and unfiltered lyricism with a renewed sense of urgency.
To celebrate the announcement and offer fans another taste of what's to come, the band also shares their new track, "Winnebago (Lay Low)," alongside a music video, available to view now.
On the new single "Winnebago (Lay Low)," frontman Tyler Connolly shares:
“'Winnebago (Lay Low)' is the epitome of the anti bar song. The F around and find out sing along. As I get older I realize that it really is better to just stay home. This song is among other anthems we recorded for our upcoming Ep 'Funeral Songs’ which is a Prt 1 of 2, and after all these years we’ve finally been able to focus on less songs and release more often like small batches of fine Kentucky Bourbon."
THEORY OF A DEADMAN have carved out their own lane as one of modern rock’s most unapologetic forces, racking up multi-platinum hits, chart-topping albums, and sold-out shows worldwide. Blending witty, candid songwriting with undeniable riffs and massive melodic hooks, the Canadian quartet—Tyler Connolly, Dean Back, Dave Brenner, and Joe Dandeneau—have built a career defined by both attitude and staying power.
From fan favorites like “Santa Monica” to gold-certified hit “All Or Nothing,” platinum singles “Hate My Life” and “Bitch Came Back,” and the double-platinum “Not Meant To Be,” the band has delivered a steady stream of rock staples. They’ve landed twelve Top 10 hits on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Chart, including four #1 singles: “Bad Girlfriend,” “Lowlife,” “History Of Violence,” and “Rx (Medicate).” The latter stands as the biggest hit of their career, earning a nomination for “Rock Song of the Year” at the iHeartRadio Music Awards.
Along the way, TOAD have achieved two Top 10 debuts on the Billboard 200, four Top 5 debuts on the Canadian Albums Chart, and multiple Juno Award nominations, while drawing praise from outlets including American Songwriter, Billboard, and Classic Rock Magazine.
Now, THEORY OF A DEADMAN are ready to further their prolific career with the release of their new EP, 'Part 1: Funeral Songs,' out on September 4th with ONErpm.

I started playing Drive Mad during a short break and ended up spending much longer than expected. The vehicle physics make every level feel unpredictable in a fun way.
The move seems less about reinvention for its own sake Sprunki and more about sustaining relevance through consistent, hook-driven releases that still preserve their core sonic character.
