Melbourne’s genre-melters Dregg have shared their latest single, I’m Done.

Mixed by Will Putney (Every Time I Die, The Amity Affliction, Thy Art Is Murder), the track adds metal, hardcore, and rap to the melting pot, bringing them together for a tongue-in-cheek take on taking life for granted.

“We wanted to construct something that outlined our current frustrations while simultaneously mocking ourselves and anyone who takes everything great they have for granted,” says the band. “The song explores the idea of breaking down one’s ego to rebuild it for a greater purpose. Not just for the people around you but for your own sanity and prosperity.”

It’s been a busy year for the heavy legends. Earlier this year they released the TU Track EP, as well as the single Hectic. Prior to this, the five-piece released The Dregg and No Comment EPs.

Dregg stepped onto the scene in 2016, bringing together Christopher Mackertich (vocals), Jordan McQuitty (guitar), Sam Yates (guitar), Aiden Zovic (bass), and Horhay Delalopez (drums).

Known for their tongue-in-cheek lyricism relating to the current state of the world, the band has made it their mission to provoke and inspire—something that definitely rings true in this new single.
