Rising metaphysical metalcore powerhouse The Pretty Wild have unleashed their new track, Living Ded, as the band prepare to embark on the Hell Hath No Fury North American tour in support of In This Moment, Wargasm and Kat Von D. They also feature at Inkcarceration 2025 on Saturday, 19 July 2025.
“Living Ded is about reclaiming power through an intense and seemingly unbeatable struggle,” Jules Wylde told us, “when you’re dragged to your darkest depths, almost into existential collapse, and you find yourself suspended in this kind of weird liminal space.
“Some choose to stay there, but others self-realise the suffering, refuse to disappear, and choose to rise again as something new raw, almost ghostly or unkillable. You can hear that resurrection point in the lyric ‘in death we wake’.”
For Jyl Wylde, the song is about the death of the projection society built to contain you in. “It’s for the moment you realise the world insidiously shapes people through subconscious dynamics into masks they begin to mistake for who they are,” she says. “The vampiric theme interwoven in Living Ded addresses the fact paradoxically that we’re all parasites in each other’s myth.
“We feed off validation, guilt, and projection until the self rots into shape. And we do it to ourselves. That’s the part no one wants to take accountability for.”
