Ready, Steady, Die! ‘WYSIWYG’ - A Bold Leap into Pop-Rock Brilliance

Ready, Steady, Die!’s new single WYSIWYG is a shining example of what happens when artistic ambition meets emotional clarity. Building on the critical acclaim of their 2022 album Accidents, the British-American duo takes a bold creative turn, delivering a cinematic experience that transcends traditional genre boundaries. With its gritty electronic textures, soaring pop-rock energy, and piercing vocal delivery from Sam K, WYSIWYG pulses with both urgency and heart.

The collaboration with director Max Clendaniel and writer Matt Riley adds a rich visual layer to the track, turning WYSIWYG into a full-bodied artistic statement. The video’s narrative — of a man who finds solace in self-expression through drag — is both poignant and powerful, adding a deeper emotional dimension to the already potent music. It’s a refreshing take on identity, duality, and the courage it takes to be oneself in a world built on appearances.

This is not just a song — it’s a moment. WYSIWYG is Ready, Steady, Die! at their most accessible, and paradoxically, their most daring. It shows that the duo isn’t afraid to evolve, to push boundaries, and to embrace the messy, beautiful truth of being human. A must-listen.
