Hope Gets A Volume Bump

With [dweeb] what you see is what you get. And if what you see is four blokes with tireless optimism, endless supplies of creativity and the sort of live show that leaves people smiling for the rest of the week… then you’re on the right track. And if you see a band that are more pumped than ever about their future, who live for the taking of their neon hyperglo and industrial sonic optimism out to the masses, then you’re really on the right track.

All of which is to say that [dweeb] are a good thing. But you knew that already. You knew it the moment you heard that they took part in a BBC documentary a couple of years back. Called ‘Singing With The Enemy’ the four eternal believers had to move in with a XXX rated punk band, write a song and not end up looking either like fools/cult members or nice-but-irrelevant weaklings. [dweeb] more than passed the test.

And with the launch of their new album – Feels Like Dynamite – the smart money’s on a whole load more people finding out about [dweeb] in the coming months.
Tim explains why: “We’re proud of ‘It Came From Out Of Space’ (their last album), people liked it, but there’s no point releasing it again. So we’ve pushed the sound on. Rock is still the foundation, but rather than there being the jazzy, funky elements, there’s now an electro side to it, with some dance grooves in it. You’ll hear something from [dweeb] that you haven’t heard before.”

Produced by the band as well as Mark Underdown and David Lynch (Duke Special), this latest album comes ready-mixed for maximum flavour. And for a band who have opened for big hitters like Delirious? and Enter Shikari and have headlined more than their fair share of upscale popular festivals overseas, there’s more than enough pyrotechnics crammed into the album to make for some truly exceptional live shows ahead.
