Pop-punk legends Neck Deep are celebrating ten full years of their massive hit single, “December,” by dropping a brand new, highly fun 8-bit video game for fans to play right now. This celebration comes as the track cements its status as the modern alternative Christmas song of choice, recording its biggest streaming day ever on December 1 with over 540k plays across its three versions. The song’s cultural footprint is massive, with BLACKPINK’s Rosé famously covering it in 2022 and the track notching up huge numbers of creations on TikTok recently, showing its lasting power across the globe. Fans can play the game right now here.
Ten years of “December” also means a decade has passed since the release of their iconic album, ‘Life’s Not Out to Get You’, which reached the UK chart top 10 and has since been certified Silver. The album features fan favorites like “Can’t Kick Up The Roots” and “Gold Steps,” and the quintet is set to see out the year with a special UK anniversary tour for the record. Neck Deep, formed in a spare room in Wrexham, Wales, has spent the last decade mastering their craft, transforming from a scrappy, hopeful teenage band into one of British rock music’s most successful global exports, boasting over a billion streams and top five records in both the US and UK.
