The Dead Krazukies are back with their second single, “1997,” following the announcement of their upcoming fourth album Cipher. Released on April 24, 2026 via SBÄM Records and Kicking Records, the track delivers a fast, nostalgic punch rooted in late ‘90s skate culture.
Built around skate culture, basement shows and teenage invincibility, the track plays like a time capsule of the late ’90s, a loud, heartfelt throwback to a time when life was simpler. But beneath the speed and singalong hooks lies a bittersweet realization: those days are gone. “1997” captures that exact moment when nostalgia hits, when you wish you could tell your younger self to slow down and hold on a little longer.
It’s a song that balances urgency with emotion, hitting both a personal and universal nerve. Fans of Sum 41, Rise Against, and Pennywise will find plenty to connect with here.
