Dikembe delivers "Haymakers"

Posted in Bands on May 20, 2025

Dikembe shared a new single recently, "Haymakers," which is the first new song from the band in five years. It comes with news of a new album too.

Along with the single, Steven Gray says:

"Haymakers" is a song about accountability and taking responsibility for one’s actions, even when doing so can be shameful. Acknowledging that your actions and attitude have negatively impacted others can be tough to accept, but giving yourself the grace to make it up to them is powerful. Haymakers takes a look at the thought process of someone struggling to put their world back together after dust has settled. When the wake of your actions includes a list of names you need to make amends with, “who’s next?” should be the most important question.

The song will appear on King, a new 5-song EP out this fall on Skeletal Lightning.

The band released Muck in 2020.
