For New York-based post-hardcore band dweller. creating music has been a cathartic release, addressing stages of grief on their 2023 breakout EP, All The Things We Carry. Now as the band enters its next chapter, their bringing awareness to social and global issues with musical intensity.

On new single “Make Home,” dweller. delivers a murky track, highlighted by crushing vocals and rich distortion. The song expresses anger at the ongoing genocide in Gaza, while never succumbing to hopelessness. “Have we forgotten our neighbor / is every single human being?” vocalist/guitarist Juan Aguilar, on the song, a plea across borders to recognize our shared struggle, our shared humanity. To hear it from dweller., it’s impossible to forget. The video for the song, directed and edited by Aguilar, shows the destruction of the safety of home alongside a powerful performance from the band. With the release, dweller. is raising a call to action to donate to Gaza Soup Kitchen and the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund.

Speaking further, the band shares:

“‘Make Home’ was born as a reaction to witnessing the genocide taking place in Gaza — from the anger at the systems that allowed it to happen, and the complacency of the world at the killing of thousands of civilians.

Visually, the idea was to show the destruction of the familial at the reckless hands of violence.

A tribute for those who long for simple things — four walls and a roof, blue skies without raining fire, neighborhoods to run through, and a chance to grow old.

For the people of Palestine, who have been stripped of their home.”
