Ep 270: Dead Wrong
In Episode 270 of The Popko Project Podcast, we sit down with Matt and Stephen from Philadelphia pop-punk band Dead Wrong to discuss their debut full-length album, The Extent, their upcoming album release show, and the journey that brought the band together.
The conversation dives into the band’s origins, songwriting process, musical influences, and the emotional stories behind tracks like “Summer Runaways,” “Happy Birthday,” and “Every Season.” Matt and Stephen also reflect on the state of modern music, the importance of full-length albums in the streaming era, the return of vinyl, and how bands can still create meaningful connections with fans.
Along the way, the trio swap stories about Warped Tour-era influences, My Chemical Romance, The Starting Line, The Used, live show energy, and what Dead Wrong hopes fans experience when they come to a show.
Plus, hear exclusive details about the band’s album release celebration, future music plans, and what’s next for one of pop-punk’s rising independent acts.
