D O P A P O D

Dopapod stands out in the live music scene with their eclectic blend of jam band energy, funk grooves, jazz fusion, and progressive rock. Their dynamic performances and improvisational prowess have garnered a dedicated following.

With the twin releases of "Aiboh" and "Phobia," the band forges a new path in their discography, celebrating both the intricate patterns of palindromes and the expansive nature of their sonic landscape.

The band - composed of Eli Winderman on keyboards, Rob Compa on guitar, Chuck Jones on bass, and Neal "Fro" Evans on drums - thrives on live improvisation and has a devoted fan base.

Amidst the enigmatic allure of palindrome week, Dopapod delivers yet another stunning revelation: "Phobia", the companion piece to their album "Aiboh", released just five days prior. The albums join to form "Aibohphobia", ingeniously encapsulating the band's clever play on words and reflecting the concept of a term that humorously refers to the irrational fear of palindromes, echoing the symmetrical chaos that is central to Dopapod's musical ethos.

"Phobia" entwines the listener in an auditory fabric woven with threads of introspection, kinship, and the undercurrents of existence. Each track, from the candid confessions of "Let It All Out" to the warm embrace of "Best Friends", examines the complexities of personal development and our interlinked lives.

Tracklist for Phobia

1. Let It All Out

2. Two Somebodies

3. Wizzy

4. Man or Machine

5. Mitochondria

6. Brand New Home

7. Imaginary Friend

8. Best Friends

The album's visuals encapsulate the phantasmagoric landscape that is trademark Dopapod – where the familiar and the fantastical merge. "Phobia" is not just a set of songs, but a multi-sensory odyssey that Dopapod fans, old and new, will not merely traverse but inhabit.

In tandem, "Aiboh" and "Phobia" encapsulate Dopapod’s playful mastery of musical palindromes, delivering a dualistic experience that's both intellectually stimulating and viscerally moving. "Phobia" is an album that not only concludes the narrative begun by "Aiboh" but also provokes the audience to confront and appreciate their unique traits.

“Aiboh” joins "Phobia" in streaming across all platforms. Secure your vinyl pre-orders for both albums through the band's official website. Be sure to also catch Dopapod on their upcoming tour dates, where the live translation of "Aibohphobia" will unfold on stage.
