j:dead premieres brand new video ‘Feeling Alone’ on Side-Line, one day ahead of the official release
j:dead
UK industrial-electronic act j:dead will release the digital single and video “Feeling Alone” on 6 March 2026 via Infacted Recordings (pre-save it here), as the next entry in his ongoing 12-month, 12-single campaign that began with “Pressure” in December 2025.
The new j:dead “Feeling Alone” single follows “Disgusting” and “Who Knows”, extending a release schedule built around stand-alone digital tracks rather than a traditional album format.
An accompanying video has already been shot and today you can watch the video ahead of its release date exclusively on Side-Line!
Lyrically, “Feeling Alone” focuses on the point where patience with people in your life runs out, whether that break happens by choice or necessity. It describes how a kind of Stockholm syndrome can blur memories of toxic relationships and make even necessary separation feel painful.
j:dead describes “Feeling Alone” as “a track about the lies we tell ourselves in order to move on, and the emotional scars left behind,” stressing how actions taken to sever connections can conceal an ongoing internal struggle.
Musically, “Feeling Alone” offers j:dead’s most aggressive and hard-hitting track to date, built on harsh industrial-leaning electronics, dense, distorted textures and a rhythm structure aimed squarely at the dancefloor.
About j:dead
j:dead is an industrial-electronic solo project from Bicester, England, founded by vocalist and songwriter Jay Taylor in late 2019. Before launching j:dead, Taylor worked extensively as a live drummer with scene acts including Tactical Sekt, Tyske Ludder and Harmjoy.
The project first appeared with the digital single “Haunt” in December 2019, which introduced Taylor’s mix of synthpop-leaning melodies and darker electronic textures. In December 2020 he followed with “Feeding on Me”, released via Infacted Recordings with remix contributions from Grendel, Tactical Sekt, ES23 and Auger.
The debut full-length “A Complicated Genocide” arrived on Infacted in January 2021 in both digital and expanded CD editions,. Subsequent releases included the singles “Tearing Me Apart” (with Teknovore), “I’ll Wait” and the “Vision Of Time” EP in 2022, followed by the “Hold Tight” digital single and several collaboration and remix projects.
In 2023, j:dead issued the EP “Roots” on Infacted Recordings, combining new material with remixes by Mesh, Aesthetic Perfection and others.Later that year and into 2024 he released the singles “Surrendering”, “Harbour” and “What We’ll Be”.
With “Pressure” and the 12-single campaign, Taylor extends that trajectory into a tightly structured release schedule centred on digital singles.
Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil.
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
