It was late March of 2020 when Deeper released their sophomore album, Auto-Pain, an LP that drew universal acclaim, earning praise from outlets like VICEStereogumBrooklynVeganPaste and CLASH who called the album "a majestic step forward" for the band. The band was preparing for a full year of touring, coming off of a European run with Twin Peaks and a triumphant NYC release show at Rough Trade, with plans for headlining tours in North America and Europe, but those plans were suddenly derailed when the pandemic began. These set backs did not dim the enthusiasm generated by Auto-Pain, nor did it dampen the band's tireless work ethic, and today, following right behind their successful livestream from the Chicago Cultural Center in March, Deeper are announcing the upcoming Auto-Pain: Deluxe Edition on Fire Talk Records. The new 2-disc version of the LP reframes the liminal spaces of the Chicago quartet’s searingly-nuanced album about grief and resilience into a densely-layered perspective of emotional maximalism, fearless in its vulnerability, and includes remixes two stripped-back demos and live versions from the band’s Chicago Cultural Center performance, and remixes from fellow ascending artists Working Men’s ClubFire-Toolz, PVA, and their Chicago peer NNAMDI, whose remix of "4U" the band are sharing today to mark the announce. 

Below Deeper's Drew McBride expands on the remixes, the deluxe edition, and the experience of releasing their album during such a strange year:


"Since Auto-Pain came out right as the pandemic was reaching a fever pitch, we’ve spent the last year trying to find ways to sustain the momentum that was just picking up as the whole world shut down. The deluxe edition adds awesome interpretations of the songs from artists we really admire, as well as live recordings that showcase how the record is meant to be heard – in person and loud!

"The reception of the record has kept us going throughout quarantine. Most people haven’t been able to see us play these songs yet, so we partnered with the Chicago Cultural Center to create a special performance that really captures the essence of a record that needs to be heard live. Recorded by Jason Balla (Dehd) and mixed by our longtime engineer Dave Vettraino, the songs sound like you’d expect after touring nonstop for a year. We can’t wait to play these out for people, hopefully this fall.

"The remixes provided a really fun way to see our vision for the songs reinterpreted through the lens of other artists we really respect. The final products each blew us away and we’re really excited to get these out into the world. Big shout out to Working Men’s Club, NNAMDÏ, PVA, Fire-Toolz, and Good Morning."
