DZ Deathrays team up with Ecca Vandal on new single 'Fear The Anchor'

With their highly-anticipated new album set to drop in the coming months, DZ Deathrays have now returned to share another cut lifted from their forthcoming new full-length.

The new single 'Fear The Anchor' sees the team up with Melbourne artist Ecca Vandal for the release, and follows on from the previously shared tracks 'All Or Nothing' and 'Fired Up' in previewing their fifth full-length 'Positive Rising: Part 2', which is out on the 9th July via Alcopop! Records.

Speaking about the collaboration, guitarist Shane Parsons said, “We asked our good friend Ecca Vandal to join us on this track. It was such a pleasure and honour to have Ecca on ‘Fear The Anchor’, she absolutely shreds it! We actually changed the key in pre-production so both our voices fit the track and I think it was for the better. When it came to working on it in the studio it was really fun to bounce ideas around between everyone and have Ecca add extra melodies throughout the song. I hope we all get to share a stage again and thrash this one out!”

While Ecca added, “I'm a massive DZ fan! I get hyped listening to their records and their live energy is just wild, so it was super cool to finally collab on something! They are all such killer musicians and songwriters, consistently releasing quality music. I’ve always been inspired by their endless creativity and drive!”
