We're back! That's right, this is the same NY based DEK that terrorized the world via the internet a few years ago.

Yeah, those Kidz. Not only are we back, but we're here to kick more ass than ever! Keep your eyes and ears tuned to this page and our website for updates as to what's going on in the world of The Dead End Kidz. If you're tired of all this new shit sounding the same and you're bored to death with it, give DEK a try! We pull no punches--we're a straight ahead, smashmouth, in your face, ROCK N ROLL BAND!!! We told you we'd have new tunes in 2006, and here they are! Get them, listen to them, and help spread the word! Thanks for stopping by and remember....if it's too loud....TOO BAD!
HERE'S THE OFFICIAL BIO!!!!!THE DEAD END KIDZ(DEK) are a 5 piece band that hail from New York. DEK was formed in the mid 1990's and have been rocking ever since. DEK has received favorable reviews in such prestigious magazine's as BILLBOARD and THE VILLAGE VOICE in the US, and other publiactions World Wide such as BURNN! in Japan. Combining the influences of hard rocking legends like KISS, Aerosmith, Van Halen, AC/DC, Rush and Ted Nugent with lessor known, but well respected bands like UFO, Thin Lizzy, Saxon, Riot, DEK has formed a hard rocking sound that will satisfy any rock or metal fan. THE DEAD END KIDZ were formed out of the ashes of a copy band called BASKET CASE. When 2 members of BC left for other musical ventures, founding members Scott Carlson(Guitar) and Tom Mahalko(Drums)decided to stay with vocalist John Erigo(who, by the way, is a co-founder of the legendary heavy metal fanzine from the 80's known as KICK ASS MONTHLY)and started writing songs. Shortly after that DEK had finalized their line-up with Michael LoBianco on Guitar and Kevin Edell on Bass. Now, THE DEAD END KIDZ were ready to show the World that true rock n roll was still alive! Now, in the 21st Century, DEK finds themselves using the internet to gain even more fans. With tens of thousands of plays on their myspace page, DEK has released their second cd titled UNFINISHED BUSINESS(which is now available on iTunes and many other legal download sites!). The cd was recorded/co-produced and mixed by MICKY JAMES who is known for his musical work with the CRISS ANGEL show. Micky was a perfect fit for the DEK sound. UNFINISHED BUSINESS is now available on many retail download sites and iTunes. So, be on the look-out for THE DEAD END KIDZ and remember our motto--if it's too loud.............TOO BAD!
