Dumbing Up

2006-05-08

After a three-year hiatus, lead singer Karl Wallinger returns to help the band recapture the magic of previous releases such as Goodbye Jumbo. Dumbing Up reckons back to ‘60s style bare-bones rock, with added retro sounds on various tracks. The first single is #5 “Here Comes the Future”, but also give a listen to #2 “What Does it Mean Now?”, and #9 “Santa Barabra”.
