It only feels like yesterday that we first came across the San Francisco duo the Dodos. In fact it was last August and at the time we were slurping in the quirky delight that was ‘Trades and Tariffs‘. Well Meric and Logan haven’t been sitting idly by waiting for the world to catch up with their idiosyncratic sonic curves. Instead they’ve been pluming album number 2 ‘Visitor’, which is due on the hungover induced arena that is the 18th of March. In fact a messy head is where the Dodos could do most of their damage. Listen to ‘Jodi’ and you’ll initially bask in the gently tugged jangle, before long though the momentum has a rocket rammed up its behind and all hell breaks loose. The effect is freewheelin and wholly liberating for ears forced fed on insipid ballads. Break free from monotony, a brave new whole awaits, let the Dodos show you the way. KD
