The Unfinished Chapter: Drop Dead Gorgeous Returns to San Antonio

Drop Dead Gorgeous steps onto The Rock Box stage on Saturday, October 4, 2025, marklong another point in a career defined by deliberate absence and sudden resurgence. The Denver post-hardcore unit — whose work has bridged chaotic experimentation and melodic precision — has returned to the conversation with their recent single Six Feet and an accompanying music video, their first new material in years (Lambgoat). For longtime listeners, the October date in San Antonio offers one of the few chances to see this re-energized lineup in a live setting before momentum carries them further into the next phase of their career.

The evening includes Ammo For My Arsenal, a Texas act steadily building their name on the metalcore circuit, and Avnue, whose melodic hooks and live energy have earned a growing regional following. The supporting acts’ styles position them as complementary yet distinct — a pairing that could pull in both devoted DDG fans and listeners looking for newer, local sounds.

DROP DEAD, GORGEOUS release new single “Six Feet” and music video

Drop Dead, Gorgeous have issue their new song “Six Feet” along with its music video. This release marks the newest music from the band since The Hot N’ Heavy came out in 2009.

San Antonio’s role as a consistent tour stop for heavy music makes it a natural fit for this return. The Rock Box’s size and setup offer a level of proximity that’s increasingly rare for bands with a history like Drop Dead Gorgeous, giving fans a direct vantage point on a group navigating its own creative reboot. The date also arrives as the band is promoting fresh material rather than leaning solely on past work, suggesting the setlist may reflect that shift in focus.

For a band that built its legacy on unpredictability, this show feels less like a reunion and more like a reawakening. With new material, a sharpened live lineup, and a city that’s long embraced the heavy and the heartfelt, Drop Dead Gorgeous’s stop at The Rock Box isn’t just a comeback—it’s a statement. Whether you’ve been waiting since The Hot N’ Heavy or you’re just now tuning in, October 4 promises a night where old scars meet new fire.
