Doldrums released the new album The Air-Conditioned Nightmare this month through Sub Pop, and online vinyl pre-orders came with a bonus 7-inch with the song "I Don't Wanna Be Deleted" (or "IDONTWANNABEDELETED"). Now, that song has emerged online.
Following a spaced out synth intro, a four-on-the-floor kick enters and the song turns into a thumping dance banger with a jittery breakdown, some "West End Girls"-style sing-speak, and breathy vocal melodies with assistance from Samantha Urbani.
Hear it below and decide whether this is a keeper, or if it belongs in the "delete" bin.
Doldrums has been booked for Canadian summer festival appearances at SappyFest and Hillside. See the full schedule below.
