BEST BEHAVIOR

Drawing heavily on the chemically enhanced beats, bass and organ textures of Britrock, Dinowalrus – hailing from Brooklyn, NY – use a palette of analogue synth, guitar, samplers, drum machine and occasional sax to identify and exploit new crossovers between psychedelic rock and dance music; reopening a strange, fun and vibrant chapter in music history that never quite reached American shores. An experiment in pushing an interest in krautrock, house music, post-punk and psychedelic rock into the most condensed, vocal-driven, danceable, hooky and coherent form possible, it succeeds without losing the unique mad-cap ambience and instrumental playfulness of their earliest material.
