Alternative rock band Palaye Royale continues to release music following their epic year of successful touring with their latest single, “Sad Generation.” The new song follows their earlier November single “Feel Something, Great,” opening the door into the next era for the three-piece band as they move past their Death or Glory era.
“Sad Generation” comments largely on the general Gen Z experience and the challenges that come with online addiction, work overload, and the pressures that come with the digital landscape. Atop an alternative-pop vibe, vocalist Remington Leith repeats the frustrated sentiment: “I just blame depression / Digital obsession / All this fucking pressure / One more victim / Welcome to the sad generation.”
The Canadian-American trio released their powerful single “Feel Something, Great” earlier in November, marking the band’s first single since their dynamic glam rock and fourth studio album, Death or Glory (2024).
On concluding their Death or Glory tour, the band shared:
“165 shows across 35 countries, we’ve lived what feels like a lifetime together from the first note to the final bow. […] To every soul who has been with us you are our family, our Royal Council. None of this exists without you. To our incredible crew who made every night possible, our team and to the bands who shared this wild ride with us, thank you. Death or Glory will live forever, but a new era is calling.”
Palaye Royale recently concluded their successful run in support of English rockstar YUNGBLUD on the European leg of the IDOLS Tour, and look ahead to a summer of festival performances in 2026.
The “Fever Dream” band will perform at the 2026 Sonic Temple festival in Columbus, Ohio, on Saturday, May 16, alongside headliners Bring Me the Horizon, Good Charlotte, and Motionless in White. More information about Sonic Temple is available here.
Palaye Royale will appear at the sold-out Rock Am Ring and Rock Im Park music festivals in Germany alongside headliners Bad Omens, Volbeat, and Electric Callboy. More information is available here. .
Next year will mark 10 years since the release of the band’s debut album, Boom Boom Room Side A (2016), including hits like “Mr. Doctor Man,” released via Sumerian Records.
