Never Elected, one of Washington D.C.’s most captivating and electrifying acts, is set to rock the airwaves with their latest single âAll My Lifeâ, extracted from the re-released album âTurbulentâ coming out on April 19th. The single is also a finalist in this year’s 2024 WAMMIES (Washington, D.C.’s version of the Grammy’s) for Best Hard Rock / Metal Single along with their other nominations for Best Hard Rock / Metal Band, and Best Hard Rock / Metal Album.
Known for their thought-provoking material centered around socio-political themes, Never Elected continues to leave an indelible mark on the music scene. âAll My Lifeâ follows the lived experiences of the protagonist, a flurry of emotions and rough times, set to catchy music that draws the listener in. The band shares a bit of the story within the track:
âAll My Life begins with a rhyme that the artistâs grandma sang to him regularly, mocking his ugly looks as a toddler. It is an unfiltered outpouring of frustration directed at all those who have brought adversity into the artistâs life, spanning different periods and across various aspects. It is a brief rant on the hypocrisy and self-serving agendas exhibited by both, close and extended family.â
Watch and listen to the music video for âAll My Lifeâ via its premiere on New Noise Magazine HERE.
The re-released album âTurbulentâ is a deep reflection of the tumultuous times experienced by the band’s vocalist. From rocking out to evoking tears, the audience’s reactions to the songs have been diverse and intense, showcasing the emotional depth of Never Elected‘s music.
Formed by the dynamic duo, Sujit Kumar and Altan Aydin, who share a common love for all things grunge and rock ‘n’ roll, the band also features Dr. T on melodic bass riffs and Wesley Meyer, the driving force behind the drums. Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, the band persevered, recording and releasing two singles and music videos that kept their fans engaged during a period of uncertainty.
Recommended for fans of Foo Fighters, Alice In Chains, and Guns N’ Roses, Never Elected‘s âTurbulentâ is due out on April 19th, 2024, and is available for pre-order at https://neverelected.bandcamp.com.

“Itâs really about time that you âWake Upâ and start paying attention to the world around you, including the hard rockers known as Never Elected. The band has just released a visually-stimulating music video to accompany their recent single, a revved-up, riff-driven sonic assault that has been the bandâs most successful track since its November 2019 release. âWake Upâ is a preview of whatâs to come on the groupâs next record which they have been hard at work on this year and are on the verge of completing. If it wasnât already evident by its title and socio-politically themed lyrics, the hard-hitting music video for âWake Upâ illustrates the fact that the band is out to convey a serious message.” – V13
“After releasing the thought-provoking and socio-politically themed video for their song âWake Upâ last year, Washington, DCâs Never Elected is back with a new video for their song âWhere You Belongâ. The video touches on yet another serious topic. This time dealing with the struggles of mental health, a topic that is taboo to discuss openly in many cultures.” – All About The Rock
