The Anatomy of Hate

A man tunning away in a speedbost from gun men and an evil shadow is possessing him, he ends up having no choice but to have a standoff with them, he pops pills while fighting for an extra boost and realizing he's outnumbered he runs again and ends up on land surrounded but the evil shadow has fully possessed him and he starts slaughtering the whole army and empties 100 bullets in the boss

Shock of the New (2025 Demo)

Dead Dave is the musical persona of Jeff Tyson, a North Carolina songwriter whose music walks the line between Southern grit and heartfelt reflection. Blending country, Americana, and rock influences, Dead Dave’s sound is raw, soulful, and unmistakably human; rooted in small-town stories, hard-won resilience, and the beauty found in imperfection.

With vivid storytelling, Dead Dave crafts songs that hit straight at the heart, from the anthemic defiance of “Tonight We Dance” to the haunting geopolitical “World Gone Mad”, and the poignant holiday ballad “The Ballerina.” His lyrics speak to the people who’ve been knocked down, gotten back up, and learned to find grace in the struggle.

Drawing comparisons to Chris Stapleton, Morgan Wallen, and Zach Bryan, Dead Dave bridges the old and new, mixing roots authenticity with the emotional polish of modern country production. His music feels intimate yet cinematic, the kind of songs that sound just as powerful on a front porch as they do through stadium speakers.

Whether it's a song about love, loss, faith, or finding your place in a noisy world, Dead Dave’s music is a reminder that even when life gets messy, there’s still melody in the dust.
