We Kill Cowboys Release Their Long-Awaited EP Back From The Dead and New Single Dig Deep
After months of anticipation, Cape Town rock outfit We Kill Cowboys reveal their long-awaited EP, Back From The Dead, accompanied by a new single, “Dig Deep”. Known for their fearless blend of punk, grunge, and post-hardcore, the five-piece band is stepping into a heavier, more focused sound while retaining the raw intensity that has made them a staple of the South African underground.
Fronted by tattoo artist and singer-songwriter Alex Muller, who now takes on vocals full-time, the band channels their collective energy into music that is both visceral and emotionally charged. Back From The Dead showcases Alex’s gritty, passionate delivery, bringing to life stories steeped in anti-establishment grit and personal defiance.
The addition of Floris Le Roux as a second guitarist has added new depth to the band’s sound, complementing Mornay’s jagged riffs with technical precision and melodic sensibility. Anchored by Andrew’s pounding drums and Miggs’ thick, fuzzy basslines, We Kill Cowboys deliver a rhythm section that hits hard and leaves a lasting impression.
True to their ethos, We Kill Cowboys continue to challenge convention. Their music is raw, unfiltered, and deeply human — a reflection of the chaos, defiance, and beauty that fuels the underground scene. With Back From The Dead, the band roars back with renewed purpose — louder, bolder, and unapologetically themselves. Fans can expect ferocious riffs, haunting hooks, and a sound that strikes with both emotion and intensity.

The new single, “Dig Deep”, captures this energy perfectly. A high-octane anthem, the track explores the struggle to release the ego’s isolating grip and trust in one’s inner guidance toward freedom and fulfillment. Lyrically resonant, it speaks to self-discovery, personal growth, and following your passion. Alex’s soulful vocals, contrasted with hardcore screams, create a dynamic, emotionally charged sound that is both intense and uplifting. “Dig Deep” merges We Kill Cowboys’ signature hardcore grooves with catchy, compelling riffs, leaving listeners empowered and inspired.
