DOG UNIT WHEN DO WE START FIGHTING?

‘When Do We Start Fighting?’ is the new tune from Dog Unit. The piece started life as an expansive 45-minute jam, before being turned upside down in search of every rhythmic and melodic nuance, and whittled down into the six-minute barrage of sonic experimentation you see before you. Its first half is driven by groovy drums and a relentless four-note melody, but the second half bursts into life as an atmospheric, psychedelic-funk odyssey. Their tightness as a band is one of the defining features of their sound, as they interweave textures as if the four members of the band operate as one. Their debut album, At Home, drops on April 5th, 2024, via Brace Yourself Records. -Dan Peeke
