DES ROCS Release Theatrical Video for “When The Love Is Gone” + Announce October 2026 European Headline Tour
New York rock powerhouse DES ROCS (aka Danny Rocco) has dropped the official music video for his explosive new single “When The Love Is Gone” – a high-octane, theatrical rock anthem that is out now via Sumerian Records.
The video, directed by Noel Paul, turns the song’s raw tension into a surreal Italian-American family dinner gone wrong. Danny sits at the table as his parents relentlessly pressure him about settling down, until he snaps, leaps onto the table and launches into a blistering full-band performance. Meatballs fly, wine glasses smash, and the whole room erupts into a full-blown rock opera.

The track lands as part of a hot streak for DES ROCS, following recent releases including “The Riders of Red Hook (Legends Never Die)” (featured during UFC 326), the high-octane “The Juice”, and the Borderlands 4 theme “This Land” (currently climbing rock radio charts).

What Critics Are Saying
- Consequence: “DES ROCS has always strived to recapture the sort of slicked-back, sweaty grit that made parents scared of rock music in the first place.”
- Rock Sound: “embodies everything that is sensational about rock and roll.”
- Classic Rock: “It’s kind of like a heavier Muse being fronted by Freddie Mercury, but Rocco brings a whole load of his own bequiffed swagger, industrial flavours and fiery theatre.”
These new tracks offer a powerful glimpse into DES ROCS’ next evolution – bigger, louder and more theatrical than ever – as he puts the finishing touches on his forthcoming album, due later in 2026 via Sumerian Records.
