Dance Gavin Dance Relaese 'The Stickler' Video

09-14-2025

(BPM) Dance Gavin Dance have shared a new music video for "The Stickler" to celebrate the release Pantheon, their highly anticipated 11th studio album. Featuring recent singles "Space Cow Initiation Ritual (feat. George Clinton)", "Trap Door", "All The Way Down", and "Midnight at McGuffy's", Pantheon sees the band building on their signature genre defying sound with soul shredding breakdowns, pop infused melodies, and frenzied screams.

Front man Jon Mess shares: "I had a lot of fun making this record, tried out some new things, experimented with layering and tone. We wrote the majority of the vocals together in a room, and I think that played a significant part in how a lot of the more risky and off the wall ideas developed. Reminded me of making Death Star and Acceptance Speech, and a little of Dbm 2, transitionary albums that feel a bit more all over the place than other albums, as the band figures out how it wants to sound again. With that being said I do I think this is one of our better albums."

Earlier this year Dance Gavin Dance wrapped up the headlining Return Of The Robot Tour with special guests The Home Team, Belmont, and Dwellings. The North American run included sold out performances in Philadelphia, New York, Worcester, Toronto, Charlotte, and more. Fans can catch them at the top of next year on the E.N.D. Cruise, departing from Miami on January 22nd.
