Denver’s Record Thieves Deliver Raw Power On Melodic Punk Rock Track “The Deep”

Colorado’s melodic punk torchbearers Record Thieves return with “The Deep,” a crushing, emotionally-charged new single that launches the countdown to their just-announced full-length album, Tragic Company, due out September 26 via Thousand Islands Records.

The 17-track LP—a bold and expansive evolution of the Record Thieves sound. is gritty, anthemic, and razor-sharp. The new single “The Deep” showcases the band’s trademark blend of melodic hooks and driving aggression, delivering a cathartic punch that hits both the heart and the gut.

A Haunting Anthem for a Broken World, United in Defiance. Drenched in raw emotion and urgent truth, The Deep is a gripping call to arms for a generation suffocating under the weight of corruption, fear, and division. With lyrics that cut through the darkness like a beacon, this song isn’t just a reflection of our struggles—it’s a battle cry for those who refuse to be swallowed by the tide. If you’re ever lost, unheard, or on the edge of surrender, The Deep reminds you: you are not alone.

Formed by veterans of Authority Zero, Boldtype, and Allout Helter, Record Thieves have built a loyal following since their 2020 debut Wasting Time. With their signature mix of heart-on-sleeve lyrics and high-octane performances, they’ve carved out a space for fans of Face to Face, Millencolin, and Hot Water Music.

Tragic Company, the band’s sophomore album, arrives with a reinvigorated lineup featuring James Steven Wilcox (drums), Allen Lee White (guitar), Michael Patrick Waterhouse (vocals), Chad Michael Gilbert (bass), and new guitarist Christopher Erik Livesay. Together, the band channels the intensity of the Rockies—snowstorms, sweat, sunshine, and all—into a sound that’s equal parts precision and raw passion.
