Following up to 2016’s single “RUNNERUP”, Doldrums recently shared a new track and video. “Heater”, which sounds like an acid trip, will be featured on their third LP ‘ESC’.
OK, Doldrums are not the tidiest band in the world but there’s something infectious and inspiring about their -mess- music. Actually, it sounds like a whole spirit that would hover over Montreal and inspire several artists, including Grimes. On “Heater”, Doldrums sings ‘I’m a people person, are you?’ on a dramatic, frenzy, epic acid soundtrack. There’s a will of independance and of being free that go further than their unconventional sound. It sounds raw and honest.
