Some of the more astute members of the readership here at Dying Scene may already know that the inimitable Fat Mike has teamed up with Get Dead‘s Sam King and New Haven, Connecticut’s Ceschi Ramos for a new project, Codefendants. Today, we get another new look and listen at what the trio have cooked up. It’s dark and it’s bleak and it’s awesome.

Check out the video for the new track, “Suicide By Pigs” below, and keep scrolling for the group’s debut video, “Abscessed.” It’s probably worth it to watch them in that order, since “Suicide By Pigs” is technically the first act of the eventual five-part release. Both tracks appear on the band’s surprise split 10″ with Get Dead – order yours here via the Fat Wreck store!
