Return to Dust is a heavy-rock-punk band based in Los Angeles, California, inspired by Alice in Chains, Deftones, and SOAD. Return to Dust formed in 2022, the band released their debut EP Black Road in July 2023. The band consists of three members, Matty (rhythm guitar, singer, songwriter), Graham (bass, singer, songwriter), and Sebastian (lead guitar, drums). Matty, Graham, and Ryan (a friend of theirs who works under their producer, Jim, who initially encouraged them to pursue music) had been friends since middle school and grew up in a small town called Midlothian. After moving to LA, Matty and Graham there met Sabastian, who quite literally stumbled across the pair playing in their garage while on a walk with his mom. The band recently acquired some traction on their TikTok page, @returntodustband While in an interview with The Vinyl Record, the band mentioned their writing/recording process. ”Music and lyrics are usually in tandem with each other. Matty and I (Graham) share this type of songwriting where you kind of just say gibberish over whatever chord progression or riff you’re jamming, and then form the words and phrases as an afterthought to fit the vibe. So in a sense, I suppose the music comes first, but it all works together. And finally, we go to the studio either with a fully composed song or sometimes just a verse and chorus. Sometimes it’s best to leave the canvas a little more blank before studio day.” In the same interview, the trio mentioned a few random facts about themselves and some hobbies they have outside of the music industry. Matty: I pick my nails til they bleed. Graham: I have a scar on my neck from when I was two, I was jumping on a bed with a toothbrush in my mouth, fell off, and it got lodged in my throat. The doctors had to fly in a special surgeon to cut open my throat and get it out lol. Seb: I used to learn all the Michael Jackson dance moves. Matty: Gaming, audio production, reading, working out, I dabble in arts like drawing and charcoal, and love a good home improvement project. Graham: The indecision and manic behavior carries over to this. I hop in and out of hobbies: Rock climbing, gaming, visual art, photo-editing. Seb: Recently I’ve been drawing more and going to the skatepark. “Find what it feels like to truly love something and do that. All the time.” - Return to Dust
