GIMME TINNITUS

Earlier this week, Dinowalrus dropped a track from their upcoming LP, Best Behavior, which is set to be released on March 6th, 2012 via Old Flame Records. Best Behavior was recorded over the past two years with Nadim Issa and Matt Walsh (of The Forms), and features drumming from The Depreciation Guild’s Anton Hochheim. On this, their second LP, band has narrowed their focus in order to create synthy jangle rock in the vein of the Madchester sound. This track has a brief cameo vocal appearance from friend of the band Patrick Stickles (of Titus Andronicus).

Listen.

Downloadable: What Now (mp3)

Be on the look out for a remix by Jez Kerr (of A Certain Ratio) as well as three different side projects of the “hair-metal, acid-house and stonesy glam rock persuasions.”

Preorderage should be available in the not too distant future @ oldflamerecords.bigcartel.com.

Dinowalrus has a q and also a.

Mind-expanding rockers, Dinowalrus have a new mp3 that is making the rounds on the internet. The guitar tone on this track feels like a melange of late-80s rock that just cascades into your ears. Can’t wait to hear their follow up to their Kanine debut. Listen.

There is reportedly a new Pollination album coming soon, but this track here is from last year’s free EP, Inca Orange. This is (obvs) trippy stuff as remixed by Stenographer.
