Building an Online Home for DeadRinger
When DeadRinger, a Winnipeg-based heavy metal band, needed a website that reflected their aggressive sound and strong brand, FunkPd delivered a fully customized, performance-driven platform. This wasn’t just about creating a website; it was about giving them a powerful digital presence that showcases their music, sells their merch, and engages their audience like never before.
Seamless Music Integration
Fans don’t want to hunt for music; they want to press play and get hit with riffs instantly. DeadRinger.com integrates Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, and Amazon Music so fans can stream albums without ever leaving the site.
This isn’t just about convenience; it’s about maximizing exposure. Embedding multiple platforms boosts discoverability, making sure DeadRinger’s music reaches fans on their preferred streaming service.
Custom Design That Screams Metal
DeadRinger isn’t a generic band, so they didn’t need a generic template. We crafted a fully custom design that aligns with their visual identity, using:
✔ High-contrast, grungy visuals that match their sound
✔ Bold typography & sharp UI to keep the energy high
✔ Immersive imagery that grabs attention and holds it
Every pixel serves a purpose; to pull visitors into the DeadRinger experience and make them remember the name.
E-Commerce Powerhouse: WooCommerce + Printful API
We set up a fully automated merch store by integrating WooCommerce with Printful’s API, allowing DeadRinger to sell:
✔ Band T-shirts, hoodies, and accessories
✔ Album-themed designs
✔ Limited-edition drops
This zero-inventory model means the band doesn’t need to worry about production, storage, or shipping; Printful handles everything. The site syncs orders automatically, letting DeadRinger focus on their music while generating passive income.
Optimized for Performance & SEO
Speed matters. Engagement matters. That’s why we built DeadRinger.com to:
✔ Load fast on mobile and desktop
✔ Be fully responsive for fans browsing on any device
✔ Use SEO best practices so fans can find the band easily on Google
