that dog. - "Just the Way"

Photo by Cara Robbins It's been twenty two years since that dog. have released new music, so you can forgive them for being behind the times a bit. Apparently no one has told them no one goes all out with music videos any more, and a fun concept and celebrity cameos are unnecessary. For their latest single, "Just the Way," the band made a video with Funny or Die which stars the members of that dog. as the fun loving roommates from TV's Three's Company , except with Janet and Chrissy trying to murder each other. They also bring in Maya Rudolph and Jack Black as The Gropers. Hijinks, naturally, ensue! As for the song "Just the Way," it's a dark, melodic hard 90's style rocker, and it's great enough to not get overshadowed by the killer (pun intended) video. You can watch the video for "Just the Way" below. Old LP , the insanely long awaited album from that dog., will be out October 4. You can pre-order a copy here . For more on ...

that dog. - "Old LP"

Photo by Cara Robbins The title track from that dog.'s first album in twenty two years is an odd choice for a single. that dog. has always had a few slower, almost orchestral songs on their albums, even dating back to their 1994 self titled debut (just listen to "She Looks At Me.") But "Old LP" is propelled mostly be Anna Waronker and Rachel Haden's voices, with violins making up much of the music. "If You Just Didn't Do It," the first single from Old LP , was much more of a traditional that dog. single, but "Old LP" seems more like their traditional album closers. It's an interesting choice, which makes the upcoming release of Old LP more intriguing. You can listen to "Old LP" below. Old LP , the new album from that dog., will be out 10/4. You can pre-order your copy here . For more on that dog., check out their website .

that dog. - "If You Just Didn't Do It"

Photo via Facebook It feels like we've been waiting forever for this, but there is finally a new song from that dog.'s upcoming new album! "If You Just Didn't Do It" is exactly what we want from that dog. in 2019. It keeps some of the noisier and more quirky aspects of their first couple of albums while maintaining the more straightforward pop from Retreat From the Sun. It's also twenty years later, so it has a more mature feel without mellowing out and while still sounding like that dog. Any time one of your favorites gets back together to put out a new album and especially when an original member decides not to rejoin (Petra Haden isn't taking part in the reunion), it isn't always great. "If You Just Didn't Do It?" Pretty great. You can listen to "If You Just Didn't Do It" below. Old LP , the new album from that dog. (and I'll never get sick of saying that) will be out October 4.
