The cheekiest band in the land is back with “Rockmaker”, The Dandy Warhols’ 12th studio album. Produced and recorded by the band at their studio/funhouse The Odditorium in Portland, “Rockmaker” sees the “Bohemian Like You” hitmakers celebrate their 30th year together with a sprinkle of glitter on their grime.
Accompanied by guests Debbie Harry, Slash, and Pixies’ Frank Black, The Dandy Warhols wrangle paranoia, untangle anxious discontent, and lust after life while the dance grooves go deeper, heady drones get weirder, and riffage fit for bong rips hammers.
“Rockmaker” is the Dandy’s clearest statement yet, at no sacrifice to their outre leanings. This is the sound of outsider alt-psych fixtures looking in as the walls come down.
From “Rockmaker” out March 15th
