Return To Dust drop wild official video for ‘New Religion’

Buzzed-about rock band RETURN TO DUST — Matty Bielawski [guitar, vocals], Graham Stanush [bass, vocals], Sebastian Gonzalez [guitar], and London Hudson [drums] — have shared the thrilling and wold video for their recently released single, the gloomy and gritty “New Religion.”

Musically, “New Religion” is an all-out riff fest, and the accompanying visual will ruffle more than a few feathers — like any down and dirty rock band and their music should.

The video finds the band knuckling down on their instruments in the desert, juxtaposed with a dark twist on religious imagery and iconography. Heads will turn… and heads will roll!

“We are born into expectations about what our life should and shouldn’t be,” the band says about the song’s deeper meaning. “If you let them influence you without resistance, you’re no better off than a frog slowly boiling to death in a pot of water.”

Return to Dust are currently on the road, supporting Mammoth and Myles Kennedy. All dates are below. Get tickets here.

Additionally, the band will take the European festival circuit by storm in 2026, with appearances confirmed for Rock im Park, Rock am Ring, Download, and more. All upcoming festival dates are also posted below.

Return to Dust proudly look to the ’90s-era grunge as a key source of inspiration for their grainy, gnarly, and modern blend of hard rock. 2024 saw the band unveil its independent self-titled full-length debut, Return To Dust, including standout single “Belly Up,” which rose through the Active Rock chart  and was praised by Distorted Sound as “a grungy, punky thrill ride,” while Revolver applauded the group’s “Alice In Chains-inspired form of modern-day grunge.” In the aftermath, they lit up the stages at major festivals like Inkarceration, Welcome To Rockville, and Sonic Temple, and joined rock legends Chevelle and Sevendust as support on tour. The group next signed to LAVA Records/Republic Records and dropped the Speak Like The Dead EP, which yielded the hit single “Bored.” Tours with Pop Evil, Billy Corgan And The Machines Of God, Breaking Benjamin, and Three Days Grace ensued, and the band also appeared at Louder Than Life and Aftershock. With 2026 squarely in their sites, there is no ceiling to what Return to Dust can achieve. Fans can go here for more.
