South Arcade have shared the official music video for their latest single DEADMEAT, continuing a huge year that has seen the UK alt rock outfit grow into one of the scene’s fastest rising bands.
The new video reunites the band with Dogbrain Videos, combining performance footage with a modern Romeo and Juliet inspired storyline played out through two avatars. It follows the release of DEADMEAT, which arrived after the band’s biggest streaming success to date with previous single SUPERMAN, a track that has already surpassed 2.8 million global streams.
The release comes during an incredibly busy run for South Arcade. After standout festival appearances at Download Festival, Rock For People and TRNSMT, the band are currently touring across the United States on the Idobi Summer School Tour. They’ll also appear at Vans Warped Tour in Long Beach later this month before heading to Australia and a string of European festival appearances.
Momentum continues to build behind the band, who have now amassed more than 190 million total streams alongside a social following of over 2.2 million. Following the success of their EPs PLAY! and 2005, plus a support run with 5 Seconds Of Summer, South Arcade recently announced their biggest headline tour to date.
The Welcome to the Real World Tour kicks off in February 2027, taking in dates across the UK and Europe before culminating at London’s O2 Academy Brixton. The Brixton show marks the largest headline performance of the band’s career so far, highlighting just how quickly South Arcade’s rise has gathered pace.
