Million Dead was a post-hardcore band hailing from London, England, known for its dynamic fusion of punk rock energy, intelligent lyrical content, and hardcore intensity. The band was active from 2000 until their split in 2005, and in that time, they carved out a niche for themselves within the UK underground music scene. They were renowned for their politically charged lyrics, delivered with a passionate ferocity by frontman Frank Turner before he embarked on his widely recognized solo folk career.

Their discography is anchored by two full-length albums, "A Song to Ruin" released in 2003 and the follow-up "Harmony No Harmony" released in 2005. The group's music evolved from their early work, distinguishable by intricate guitar work and complex song structures showcased in tracks like "Living the Dream" and "I Gave My Eyes to Stevie Wonder." Singles such as "After the Rush Hour" highlighted the band's ability to combine melody with muscular rhythms and Turner's urgent vocal style. Despite their relatively brief presence on the music scene, Million Dead left behind a legacy of innovation and a reputation for their incendiary live performances, securing their status as cult favorites among fans of the genre.
