The Dopamines will be touring with Less Than Jake and Off With Their Heads next month.
In March, the band will return to the studio with Matt Yonker (Teen
Idols, Queers) recording. The band explains:
We are recording at least 12 songs. We're hoping to have time to knock out even more. So far we have confirmed a split 7" with Dear Landlord to be released on Paper+Plastick, and tentatively one with Rehasher on Fest records (if Rehasher gets off their ass!). Past that is all secret! We have some other really awesome splits planned, and possibly an EP beyond that.
The songs are a pretty natural progression from the last record. I think the last record has a pretty poppy feel to it. I think some of these new songs still hold a lot of poppyness, while being a bit more aggressive and maybe a bit of influence from outside of the straight forward punk world. I think there are a lot of bands that inadvertently have a lot of influence on us. Like The Thermals, The Beatles, Superchunk and Guided by Voices are a pretty big influence on us musically, and I think some of that might show just a tiny bit with some of these new songs. But don't worry, we still suck live and
everything will remain beer-soaked.
