LONG ISLAND, NY: Gritty, heartfelt, and unflinchingly honest, Long Island punk rock group Half Dizzy return with their latest single “Darkest Days,” out October 17 on Punkerton Records. The track offers another glimpse of the band’s long-awaited debut full-length Yard Sale, set for release December 12 on vinyl, CD, and digital formats.
Produced and recorded by Pete Steinkopf (The Bouncing Souls) at Little Eden Studios, “Darkest Days” captures Half Dizzy’s signature blend of punchy, melodic punk and emotional grit. While the song bursts with the energy that’s made the band a mainstay in the Long Island punk scene, it also showcases a deeper layer of vulnerability and growth.
“This emotionally charged track speaks to anyone who’s ever felt out of place, capturing the quiet strength it takes to keep moving forward. With its layered sound and abstract approach, it’s a bold departure that reflects resilience, hope, and personal growth.” – Daniel Marchelewski, Guitar and Vocals
The single was mixed by Neil Tuuri (Amish Electric Chair Studios) and mastered by Christopher H. Fogal (Black in Bluhm Studios).
Band lineup:
Dizzy Doll – Lead Vocals
Daniel Marchelewski – Guitar/Vocals
Mitchell Rhein – Lead Guitar
Mina Maziekis – Bass
Mason Cohen – Drums
Yard Sale is Half Dizzy’s raw and reflective punk rock scrapbook — a record built from the pieces of a life lived loud, lost, and learned the hard way. Across 14 emotionally charged tracks, the band explores what it means to be left behind, grow up too fast, and find meaning in the mess.
“Yard Sale has been a long time coming and we couldn’t be any prouder. Some of these songs were written years ago, some of them weren’t even finished when we stepped into the studio, but we had one goal and that was to write the best, most punk as fuck album we possibly could. It’s got heart and soul, it’s got sad songs, fight songs, party songs. This album is everything we want to stand for.” – Half Dizzy
