The Industrial/Nu Metal Shock Rockers AMERAKIN OVERDOSE are blowing up 2026 with three confirmed festival appearances (more dates TBA) and newest track “Time Bomb”!
Vocalist Cody Perez shares “‘Time Bomb’ is a raw exploration of the internal war we fight when pressure, trauma, and expectation collide. The song lives inside the mind of someone running on an invisible clock, holding everything together while feeling dangerously close to unraveling. Thoughts go unspoken, emotions stay buried, and the past becomes the only thing others seem to recognize, even as the real self remains unseen beneath the surface.
As the verses unfold, opposing forces clash: angel and devil, saint and sinner, love and hate. These contradictions represent the constant voices in the head—judgment, temptation, righteousness, and rage—each pulling for control. Every setback, every unaddressed wound, adds weight, tightening the fuse and feeding the growing urge to finally snap.
‘Time Bomb’ captures that moment of restraint right before release—the choice between control and chaos, silence and eruption. Whether it’s about mental health, identity, societal pressure, or personal demons, the song leaves space for interpretation, asking one central question: How long can someone keep holding on before they explode?”

Amerakin Overdose is a genre-bending, mask-adorned industrial/nu-metal force rising out of Portland, Oregon. Renowned for their explosive live energy and visually immersive personas, the band delivers a relentless sonic assault built on crushing riffs, groove-driven rhythms, electronic textures, and powerful vocal dynamics. Drawing from influences like Korn, Slipknot, and Mudvayne, Amerakin Overdose transforms the chaos, corruption, and excess of modern culture into a theatrical, high-impact experience—each member embodying a character warped by vanity, greed, and societal decay.
Since their inception, Amerakin Overdose has released three full-length albums and established themselves as a must-see act, touring extensively across the United States. Their resume includes sharing stages with heavy hitters such as Korn, Godsmack, Disturbed, Five Finger Death Punch, Chevelle, Shinedown, Lacuna Coil, Avatar, All That Remains, and Slaughter to Prevail. The band has also earned spots at major festivals including Rock Fest (Cadott, WI), Vans Warped Tour, The Gathering of the Juggalos, and Jamey Jasta’s Milwaukee Metalfest.
In July 2024, Amerakin Overdose released their highly anticipated third album, Artificial Infection, a record that pushed their sound into darker, more experimental territory. The band has since teamed up with Jonny Santos (Spineshank/Silent Civilian), who is producing their upcoming fourth album. March 2025 marked the release of their bold, genre-twisting cover and video for Christina Aguilera’s “Genie in a Bottle,” followed by the crushing single “Point of No Return” in May and “Nothing (Without You)” featuring Jonny Santos in July.
In true Amerakin Overdose style, the shock rockers continueD to push the boundaries and delivered some holiday cheer (or fear) with their November 28 single release “Feliz Navidad” produced by Jonny Santos (Spineshank/Silent Civilian) and co-produced by Nikolas Roy Quemtri.
Amerakin Overdose‘s distinctive blend of metal, industrial, and performance art has attracted coverage from major media outlets such as Revolver, Alternative Press, Loudwire, Knotfest, and The PRP, solidifying their standing as a formidable presence in modern heavy music.
Evolving with every release and pushing their vision further into the extreme, Amerakin Overdose continues to innovate, provoke, and challenge the boundaries of modern metal.
