Seattle hardcore band Dragged Under have dropped their full-throttle new single "AlgoRHYTHM"

"AlgoRHYTHM" smashes together all of the elements that make Dragged Under such a formidable force and returns to their roots of their breakout debut album The World Is In Your Way — crushing riffs, whiplash hooks, raging hardcore vocals, and pinpoint social observations.

"'AlgoRHYTHM' is a commentary on the current meta of music promotion," says vocalist Tony Cappocchi.

 He adds, "Scrolling endlessly on artist accounts online only to see the same uninspired dancing and lip syncing to their newest song until inevitably it hits and goes viral or they move on. It almost feels as if artists don't have to write good music, or don't challenge themselves to create something they're actually interested in, instead they're writing FOR the algorithms, with the end goal being 'success at any cost.'" 

Talking about the social media formatted video, he continues, "We tried to make a video that captures the absurdity and chaos that is the social media algorithm — you never know what you'll see next or why, and we wanted to mirror that sentiment with the visuals."

"AlgoRHYTHM" follows their previous single, 2023's "Mad Punks," in which the band challenged authenticity. This came hot on the heels of their 2022 album, Upright Animals, which was released on Mascot Records. The band has already clocked up an incredible 70 million streams. Since the release of that album, Dragged Under have played crushing festival sets at Louder Than Life (US), Aftershock (US),  Slam Dunk (UK), Download (UK), 2000Trees (UK), Hellfest (France),  and Full Force (Germany).

They joined Blessthefall in the U.S. in support of their Hollow Bodies 10th Anniversary Tour, as well as runs with Beartooth, Sleeping with Sirens, Pierce the Veil, The Used, 10 Years, From Ashes to New, and The Word Alive, along with several headline tours across North America. They also tore through the UK and Europe, touring with The Ghost Inside and Landmvrks, as well as their own headline tour.

Their journey so far has seen them pick up support from SiriusXM Octane, Alternative Press, Metal Injection, BBC Radio 1, Rock Sound, Kerrang! magazine, Metal Hammer, Kerrang! Radio, as well as Amazon, Apple, and Spotify playlisting.

2025's line-up —the aforementioned Cappocchi [vocals], Sean Rosario[guitar], and new drummer Dylan Roy [also of Canadian metalcore heroes Oni] — is a snarling beast ready to be let off the leash.
