L.S. Dunes is a dynamic supergroup formed by members from prominent bands within the punk and alternative rock scenes. The lineup features Anthony Green (Circa Survive, Saosin) on vocals, Frank Iero (My Chemical Romance) on guitar, Travis Stever (Coheed and Cambria) on guitar, Tim Payne (Thursday) on bass, and Tucker Rule (Thursday) on drums. Known for their high-energy performances and unique blend of post-hardcore and punk influences, L.S. Dunes brings together a powerhouse of talent and experience, creating a sound that is both fresh and familiar to fans of their respective bands.

Violet is the group’s first album since their 2022 debut LP, Past Lives. The first single, “Fatal Deluxe,” offers a glimpse of what’s to come from rock’s most exciting and innovative supergroup; it swells in a cathartic crescendo that breaks just before the song’s conclusion.

Guitarist Frank Iero shares: “In my opinion ‘Fatal Deluxe’ marks the official opening of chapter two for L.S. Dunes. It’s a song that bridges the gap musically between where we were as a band and individually, and catches the listener up to where we are headed. It breaks quite a few conventional rules along the way and wipes clean the preconceptions of what the band is and might be capable of. It is a song I didn’t want to stop listening to after we recorded it, and a song I cannot wait to play for a live audience. Those feelings are quite often the signs of something truly special.”
