History

Formation and signing (2008–2014)

Formed in 2008 by Danny Martinez, Trey Golden, Justin Morgan, and Dustin Dow, the band wrote and recorded their first EP I Hope You Know This Means War in 2009.[4] The EP, as well as playing local shows frequently, gained the attention of a record label. The band signed to Tragic Hero Records in 2010 [5] and had three full-length releases (Seeing Clearly, Polarities, and Neutral Ground) under the label. The band parted ways with Tragic Hero in late 2014. The name of the band began as a joke, but stuck with them as time went on. It derives from the fact that the death rate in Utah was at one time higher than any other state.

Exodus

In late 2014 the band independently released their single Exodus.[6] It was well-received by fans in comparison to their previous album release.

Self titled album and new record deal with inVogue Records (2015 - present)

In 2015, it was announced via the band's Facebook that they were entering the studio to record a new album.[7] On December 7, 2015, Everyone Dies in Utah announced on their Facebook that they have signed a record deal with inVogue Records.[8] On Jan. 1st, 2016, the band released the first single, "Chronophobia", off of their new upcoming album.[9] The album was released on October 7, 2016.[10] On April 2, 2020, the band released a heavy version of Joe Exotic's 2015 country song "Here Kitty Kitty", which gained newfound popularity due to the success of the Netflix series Tiger King and interest in the cold case of Carole Baskin's ex-husband's possible murder which is addressed in the lyrics.[11]
