Saudade CD

Its been more than 5 years since DEEZ NUTS released You Got The Fucked Up. With Saudade a different band is dropping an album into a world that has radically changed. Singer JJ Peters and guitarist RealBad are now accompanied by Apolinrio Poli Correia Devil In Me, Sam Alone amp The Gravediggers, Portugal and Jesse Labovitz No Warning, Canada which makes their line up even more international than before. Friendship is still key to this group of misfits This is the lineup that instantly felt in sync live and we hoped that would translate to the studio and it did, says JJ Peters. Also, both of their history in music and writing abilities in their respective bands brings new flavourstextures to DNs sound. It is also album number four produced by Andrew Neufeld Comeback Kid, Sights amp Sounds. JJ Peters adds Aside from being one of our closest and dearest friends and a respected colleague, he has become essential to our recording process. In January of 2025 the group of old friends came together at Eyeball Studios in Portugal where the album was written and tracked from scratch in under a month, then mixed and mastered by Jon Markson in Brooklyn. Recording in Portugal and sharing some profound memories from the past had an impact on the album title, Saudade Saudade is a Portuguese and Galician term that describes a deep emotional state of melancholic longing for someone or something that is absent. It originates from the Latin word for solitude. This feeling is often linked with the understanding that the object of longing might never come back again. The word Saudade covers memories of feelings, experiences, places, or events that evoke a sense of separation from the joy they once brought. While DEEZ NUTS used to represent infamous, hedonistic lyrics these have shifted to highly personal ones telling stories mainly from the past five years. Saudade is available as coloured LP, Standard CD Jewelcase and Digital Album.
