Dreamcar

2017 release. In the summer of 2014, No Doubt's Tony Kanal [bass], Tom Dumont [guitar], and Adrian Young [drums] and singer Davey Havok [AFI, Blakq Audio] began writing and demoing music together. Without telling a soul outside of their significant others, the four musicians clandestinely moved into a cramped downtown Los Angeles rehearsal spot and revved up what would become Dreamcar. The result of this collaboration is their self-titled debut album, Dreamcar, produced by Tim Pagnotta [Neon Trees], with whom the band found a kindred spirit. The band's name actually reflects their ambitions. quot;Dreamcar speaks to a nostalgia, but as much as it speaks to the past, it also speaks to the present and the future,quot; singer Davey Havok says. quot;It mirrors hopes, aspirations, and attaining the unattainable. I would hope the songs do the same thing.quot; Rife with shimmering guitar tones, percussive slap bass, bombastic drums, and a neon-lit dancefloor dreaminess, Dreamcar gleefully nods to the decade of Boy George and Back to the Future through a kaleidoscope of wisdom earned from three decades creating and connecting with fans worldwide. The first single quot;Kill For Candyquot; instantly enchants with it's upbeat energy and sweet, saccharine chant punctuated by a twisting and turning guitar and driving rhythms.
