Hollywood Undead Rises with Bold New Single "1×1"
Los Angeles, CA – Today, rock band Hollywood Undead debuted their latest single, "1×1," through Sumerian Records, reenergizing a steadily growing fanbase. The track is compellingly infused with the iconic riff from Slayer’s "Raining Blood," adding a fresh twist to a classic anthem as the band prepares for an exciting festival season across North America and Europe.
This powerful new release unapologetically embraces resilience, with the catchy chorus proclaiming, “one by one they fall, let the reaper take them all.” The band’s seventeen-year journey into the music industry has forged their path, leading to a staggering 3.2 billion cross-platform streams and 4.1 million monthly Spotify listeners. As they step forward, "1×1" serves as an anthem of enduring strength, reminiscent of biblical teachings that emphasize perseverance through trials. Romans 5:3-4 notes, "Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope."
Produced by Matt Good, known for his work with Skrillex and The Haunt, the song blends high-energy beats with a slowed-down riff to create what can only be described as a dynamic banger. With punchy rap verses elevating to a robust chorus, "1×1" illustrates Hollywood Undead’s mastery over the nu-metal genre they have honed for nearly two decades.
Hollywood Undead shared their motivation behind the single, stating, “This song is about resilience. People are always going to doubt you or try to bring you down, but the point is getting back up every time and reminding them you’re still here, and that you can’t be replaced.” This sentiment resonates deeply with the message of hope found in faith, echoing Jesus’ encouragement to stand firm in adversity.
The track follows the band’s critically acclaimed October 2024 album, "Hollywood Forever," which climbed to 20.3 million cross-platform streams and peaked at No. 18 on Active Rock radio. The subsequent release of "Savior" in June 2025 explored deeper emotional themes, while "1×1" boldly confronts doubt and adversity with confidence.
As Hollywood Undead prepares to hit the festival circuit, kicking off at Welcome To Rockville in May, their trajectory remains impressive. With mainstage appearances lined up, including a slot at Download Festival 2026, the band continues to cultivate a robust global following, speaking to the universal language of struggle and triumph.
With over 1 billion YouTube views and a legacy of infectious and distinctive music, Hollywood Undead stands as a testament to modern rock’s enduring spirit. Their journey showcases the importance of resilience, echoing the virtues of standing strong in one’s beliefs and purpose.
As you listen to "1×1," consider the broader spiritual lessons it presents about resilience and overcoming adversity. Reflect on how you can embody these principles in your own life—after all, the act of rising again, despite the challenges we face, is at the core of many powerful narratives, both musical and spiritual.
In every challenge, remember the words of Philippians 4:13: "I can do all things through him who strengthens me." Embrace the strength that lies within you as Hollywood Undead takes you on another inspiring journey through their music.
