Info for Eat My Dust!

Glasgow’s Dead Pony are charging into a new era — louder, bolder, and more unapologetically themselves than ever. The band are releasing their new EP "at My Dust!". Marking their first major release since their acclaimed 2024 debut album "Ignore This", which earned them a Scottish Album of the Year nomination and a run of independent chart success.

We have always wanted to push the band in a heavier direction because that’s when we have the most fun. We went through a lot of personal growth in 2025 and had things happening behind the scenes that were quite stressful for us. Instead of letting that stuff get in our way, we bottled the angst and locked ourselves in the studio, channeling that energy is what created ‘Eat My Dust!’.

I wouldn’t say we are “hardcore” kids, we are fans of some hardcore but we are more Nu Metal kids. I guess Anna is just a nu metal kid who likes to 2 step. Anna was actually intending to come up with a cool dance routine for that song but because it’s so fast and frantic that’s all she could find to do that felt like a good vibe.

Dead Pony
Glasgow's Dead Pony are a primal rock band that are returning to their alternative beginnings and playing music that is meant to get people dancing. The music Anna Shields had on repeat as a teenager—Paramore, My Chemical Romance, Green Day, with a little nu metal thrown in—was the solace she sought during lockdown. Dead Pony was still trying to figure out exactly how they wanted to sound when the world went crazy because the frontwoman had only recently begun her band.

She and her bandmates felt inspired when they went back to the records that had initially captured their interest. Even while Dead Pony's music isn't very similar to that of Paramore, Green Day or My Chemical Romance—indeed, they may sound more like Wolf Alice, Queens of the Stone Age or The Mysterines—connecting with their musical roots helped the band members remember that they wanted to be alternative. Particularly for guitarist Blair Crichton, there was another aspect of the music he grew up listening to that he wanted to incorporate into the sound of his own band. That is exactly what Dead Pony's rocket-fueled new EP, "War Boys," achieves in spades and with a ton of artistic flair to boot. The title alludes to the radiation-poisoned soldiers in Mad Max: Fury Road, which served as inspiration for a lot of the music...
