San Francisco duo, The Dodos return this autumn with brilliant new album, ‘Time To Die’. The follow up to last year’s critically acclaimed sophomore effort ‘Visiter’, ‘Time To Die’ is the band’s third long player and produced by Phil Ek (Fleet Foxes, The Shins, Built to Spill).
The Dodos’ wildly percussive style is still centred around the two key elements of punchy percussion courtesy of Logan Kroeber and the Fahey-infused finger-picking of frontman Meric Long, but ‘Time To Die’ introduces one major addition to the Dodos’ creative core: Keaton Snyder, a 21-year-old music school dropout who plays a mean vibraphone.
“After Visiter, we had a lot of options for which direction to go,” says Long, “But I knew we wanted to make a rock record. Being an acoustic band—primarily, at least—sort of works against this idea, but Phil’s production showcased that side of our band.”
“The vibraphone is pretty crazy and loud,” adds Long, “and if you put it through some effects, you can make it sound like a guitar or synthesizer. It still has that element of something you’re hitting, though, which is central to how Logan and I play our instruments.”
Since the release of ‘Visiter’ last summer, The Dodos have been touring the globe (supporting Fleet Foxes on their Australian tour), playing In front of 10K at Pitchfork and selling out huge US shows on both the East and West coasts.
The tracklisting is:
Small Deaths / Longform / Fables / The Strums / This Is A Business / Two Medicines / Troll Nacht / Acorn Factory / A Time To Die
