Inspired by the pounding rhythmic improvisations found in krautrock, YOO DOO RIGHT wed the browns and pinks of their guitar noise and synthesizer treatments through a wall of sound best described as a car crash in slow motion. Solemn, chin-to-chest vocals dance in and out of the primordial sonic landscape as rubbery, nonchalant bass grooves create a warm pillow to rest a weary head upon. The band’s inaugural EP was released on December 3rd via Second Best Records and we’re stoked to give you an exclusive free download of the title track ‘Nobody Panicked & Everybody Got On’!
‘Nobody Panicked & Everybody Got On’ EP was recorded at Breakglass Studios by David Kunstatter, and was mixed by Austin Tufts and Taylor Smith of Braids.

The band commented on being on the road, explained their writing process and offered the following on their future plans:
We just returned home from a string of shows in Quebec and Ontario in support of the upcoming release. We will take the winter to hibernate and create new material before heading out on the road again in the spring of 2017.
Our writing process doesn’t follow such a traditional approach. We firmly reject the spectacle of self and the concept of showcasing any individual member of the group and instead seek to create an entity in and of itself, comprised by the four of us contributing to the writing process equally. As such, our songs don’t generally come from one single idea and instead are usually born from long form improvisations that we eventually refine into palatable material.
We’re working on new music, trying to transcend the boundaries we have found ourselves limited to in the past and want to keep pushing forward, creatively. This winter we will likely lock ourselves in the studio and endeavor to keep creating. When the sun finally returns to melt the ice surrounding our city, we will head out on tour again and try these new songs out on (hopefully) eager listeners.
