Teen Mortgage Partner with Revolver to Premiere New “Disappear” Lyric Video — Watch Now
HEADLINE TOUR HAPPENING NOW!
BAND TOURING WITH JOYCE MANOR NEXT SPRING
Washington, D.C. punk duo TEEN MORTGAGE are back with “DISAPPEAR,” a gloriously filthy burst of discordant punk energy — premiering now via Revolver.
Watch and listen here and here.
"'Disappear' was inspired by The Almanac Singers 'I Don't Want Your Millions Mister,'" Guile states. "The subject matter is as relevant now as it was back then. Soulless technology barons continue to bring about a second gilded age for the USA. History shows us this type of feudalism goes hand in hand with fascist control. We present a very easy solution: These fascists must disappear."
"Disappear" is featured on the band's debut album DEVIL ULTRASONIC DREAM, out now via Roadrunner Records. Get it here.
Teen Mortgage, who have shared stages with the likes of Weezer and Smashing Pumpkins. are in the middle of a headline tour. Get tickets here.
Teen Mortgage aren’t slowing down anytime soon — they’ll be tearing up stages next spring on tour with Joyce Manor, Militarie Gun, and Combat. Dates listed below.

ABOUT TEEN MORTGAGE
Teen Mortgage arrive with a full can of gasoline, ready to bring some light to the chaos. Originally from England, guitarist and frontman James Guile had been experimenting with the Teen Mortgage project under various names for years, shaping a sound fueled by sociopolitical commentary, mosh-pit energy, and the bite of classic ’80s punk.
After relocating to Maryland five years ago—where the D.C. fire burns brightest—Guile posted a “DRUMMER WANTED” ad on Craigslist, along with early Teen Mortgage demos, mostly as a joke. Fortunately, drummer and former nurse Edward Barakauskas got the joke. The universe clearly agreed that Teen Mortgage was overdue, and the rest quickly became musical history.
Over the next several years, the duo kept the project alive through chaos, carving out a name in the DMV scene while dodging the daily grind of existence. Between a global pandemic and Ed’s time as an ER frontline worker, they managed to release an EP and several singles before signing with Roadrunner Records in 2024.
In April 2025—fresh off tour with Weezer and The Smashing Pumpkins—Ed and James are set to release their debut full-length album, Devil Ultrasonic Dream, which carries forward their narrative of finding joy amid tech feudalism, American oligarchy, and the military-industrial complex.
The album’s title nods to the 1980s “Satanic Panic” in rock and roll, reflecting the nation’s slide toward censorship and a rising wave of Christian theocracy.
Keeping the creative process straightforward, Guile explains:
“I just wrote the demos over the period of the last year between touring. I wrote like 25 songs, we picked the best 11. We went to the same studio we've been going to for the bulk of our recording career; worked with Kenny Eaton at Mystery Ton Studios, and made the better version of what we did before. The guitars are recorded better, the drums are recorded better, vocals are recorded better. We went on tour with Weezer and the Smashing Pumpkins and I just got blown away with that sound of Billy Corgan's layering of guitars so there's just big ass guitars on this one and the lyrics are a lot better as well.”
When it comes to genre labels, Guile doesn’t seem too concerned:
“I think punk is so loosely defined, especially hardcore in the year 2025 is like so loosely defined. I've heard people call us surf hardcore; I'll take that. I can think maybe the Dead Kennedys is like a surf hardcore band, but I just call it punk or garage punk. I feel like if it's garage punk there's more of a template to do whatever you want with it; it doesn't put you as much in that hardcore box. I'll accept it if people think we're hardcore, soft core, whatever. Fuck it.”
