Endless Summer

Sticky, sweaty, melting: "Endless Summer" immediately transports you to the hottest day of the year. The third EP of Berlin-based band Dog Dimension navigates through a world of dystopian pool parties and throbbing stretches of asphalt, captured on five slick songs that maneuver between experimental rock, grunge and alt-metal on a classic guitar-bass-drums setup: While "Sticky People" is lush with tribal rhythms and hypnotic vocals, "Scrunchy Face" rattles through your ears like a speeding e-scooter on cobblestones. A cool-headed verse and a slow-mosh chorus exchange an affirmative nod on the title track "Endless Summer" – the doom-disco bridge lurks patiently behind the next cowbell. The power trio sprinkles "Doggernaut" with the occasional blast beat, while "Drop Shadow by the Pool" gently grazes avant-rock territory. A record that is, simply put, fun – or to quote the band’s singer: "My brain is hanging on a thread / It’s summer and I’m happy / I don’t want it to end"

"Endless Summer" will be released on the Berlin-based label "bohemian drips" on vinyl and in digital form. Furthermore, the record will be rearranged to be performed by a sextet consisting of the band with an additional french horn (Elena Kakaliagou), piano (Rieko Okuda) and cello (Sicker Man). The project was funded by Musikfonds e. V. – the premiere show is on October 1, 2021, at ausland, Berlin.
