GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Paper + Plastick Records has announced the release of a split 7” from Minnesota’s Dear Landlord and Ohio’s The Dopamines. The 7” can be bought in the Paper + Plastick webstore, and will be available exclusively through the webstore and from the bands on tour. The four-song 7” can be streamed at ThePunkSite.com.
Due to a manufacturing error where the vinyl is mislabeled, Paper + Plastick has decided to sell the 7”s to fans for $2.50, the price it costs to make each piece. The split is available in three different variations – black/gray/blue split in thirds, blue with gray haze and light blue with gray dust – and is limited to just over 1,000 copies total.
Both bands have two songs each on the split, playing similar brands of old-school, 90s-style pop-punk. The Dopamines’ half comes after their 2010 full-length, Expect the Worst, which gained the band a stronger following on the basis of songs like “Public Domain.” The split precedes a series of releases planned for the coming year stemming from recordings the band did in March with Matt Yonker of The Queers and Teen Idols. Dear Landlord is still riding the momentum of 2009’s acclaimed Dream Homes (stream) and their half of this release, produced by Matt Allison (The Menzingers, Alkaline Trio, We Are The Union), has been highly anticipated from fans.
The entire split will be streaming at thepunksite.com for the entire week. Dear Landlord and The Dopamines will both continue touring in 2011 and will both be playing The Fest 10 in Gainesville in late October.
