Dope Sweater ’20–’21 Singles cassette

The long-running, self-proclaimed “Indiana garage punk kings” return with an unorthodox release. Recorded during the height of COVID isolation, the three members of this band recorded their own parts alone and sent files to one another to create what we have before us. Six songs which span a lot of ground stylistically—personally, I much prefer the dingy garage/JAY REATARD-inspired tunes to the somewhat more meandering, long psychedelic jams, but on a whole, this is a cool release with some damn good songs and an interesting tale. Physical copies limited to 25.
