Today, the hard rock group POP EVIL released the third single, “Dead Reckoning (Ft. FIT FOR A KING)” from their upcoming album, Skeletons due March 17 via MNRK Heavy.
The concept and instrumentals for “Dead Reckoning” were brought to the table by bassist, Joey “Chicago” Walser and co-written with singer, Leigh Kakaty. The producer, WZRD BLD, heard the demo and immediately suggested that Ryan Kirby from FIT FOR A KING would be the perfect fit for a vocal collaboration. In describing the song, the band said, “"Dead Reckoning" is about..a clear and unwavering decision a person makes within themselves.”

The 11-tracks feature the already released single, “Eye of the Storm” landing at the #5 Most Played Song in 2022 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Chart, and the most recent single, “Paranoid (Crash & Burn)”. The album also includes guest performers such as Blake Allison from DEVOUR THE DAY providing guest vocals on “Wrong Direction”.
Skeletons see the band once again working with producer Drew Fulk (Disturbed, Papa Roach, Motionless in White), a friend and collaborator on a few previous albums that generated # hits. “With Versatile, we had a bunch of producers, but for this album, we just wanted to work with one person and get back to our roots,” says Kakaty. “There’s an energy he and I have, and he’s been great at helping us build these songs and work around some collective themes.”
