Alex Lifeson's Envy Of None return with new track No Dead Yet and spooky, Day Of The Dead-inspired video

Envy Of None.

Canadian modern alt.prog quartet Envy Of None has shared a Day Of The Dead-themed video for new single, Not Dead Yet, just in time for Halloween.

The band, who famously feature Rush guitarist Alex Lifeson alongside former Coney Hatch bassist Andy Curran, vocalist Maiah Wayne and producer and engineer Alfio Annibalini, released their self-titled debut album through Kscope back in 2022.

Wayne, who wrote the lyrics, says that the words were inspired by Curran's raw chorus line "I'm not dead yet, come on along and see what I am good for", and describes the track as a "cathartic anthem, one that embodies resilience and defiance against the forces that aim to tear us down."

"Simply continuing to exist, to create, and to fight is inspiring and powerful," she continues. "You have to continue to exist, to create, and to fight. That’s the heart of the song: keep going and enjoy the ride."

The band are currently working on a second album, which they plan to release in Spring 2025.

The video was inspired by Mexic's Dia De Los Muertos – the annual Day of the Dead holiday, when families and friends gather to pay respects to the departed – and produced by Mariano Biotico, who previously worked on this year's video for My New Low by Today Was Yesterday, another track featuring Lifeson.
