Dumb Things Share Outta Time Track

In a little over one wee, my current favorite Aussie’s, Dumb Things, will release their latest album, Self Help. They’ve been teasing us since the record’s announcement, and we’ve got one final single to enjoy before we double down and play the album on repeat for weeks. “Outta Time” caught my ear at first because of the percussive element on this track; it’s quick and snappy, whipping the song into a frenzy, despite the rest of the group trying to pull back on the reigns. For me, that matched up with the refrain “feels like I’m running outta time” that courses through the song’s entirety, and how often do you get to say the lyrics and rhythm section match up? Then of course, there’s overlapping harmonies and the group’s affinity for crafting melodic magic, so again, Self Help is out next Friday and you’re going to need to listen!

Dumb Things Announce Self Help LP + Share New Single

If you come to our site from time to time, we hope you uncover something that’s possibly overlooked but worthy of repeat listens. Dumb Things is one such band, and their “Self Help” single was one of my absolute favorite tracks last year. The Aussie outfit have just announced they’ll be releasing their Self Help LP this April, and with that, they’ve sprinkled this delighting ditty to satiate your pop needs. Steady drums march you into the tune, then the sweetness of the vocals from Madeleine hit you right in the face; it’s enough that her voice sparkles in the verse, but when that chorus drops, aided by the rest of the group, I was just crushed. Really excited for the group, and for you to get to hear these songs! Self Help is out April 4th.

Dumb Things Give You Self Help

I knew almost instantly that I was going to love this track from Dumb Things; the song opens with that forlorn, wistful Aussie twang, sort of weary yet filled with hope on the horizon. Then, the vocals jumped into the picture, working somewhere between Malkmus and Pete Yorn, with faint hints of backing vocals twisting the pop knife deep into your soul. All of a sudden the track drops into the chorus, throwing some sick harmonica at me, and you’re tapping your toes to this spritely track built on the back of broken spirits. This was a really unexpected hit to come my way, and I’m looking forward to their new record, Self Help; we’ll have more on that later!
