81355 - Bad Dogs (Brwn) [Colored Vinyl] Vinyl Record

Though they may not have intended to do so, Indianapolis hip-hop trinity known as 81355 (pronounced BLESS) rang out as revolutionaries with their 2021 debut record This Time I'll be of Use. When Oreo Jones, Sirius, and Sedcairn come together, genre evaporates into enthralling poeticism and sonic hypnosis. Their sophomore LP Bad Dogs acts as an expansive continuation of their signature sound: an angelic, gritty, enthralling urban hymnal for the disillusioned. Produced by Sedcairn, Bad Dogs cracks deeper into this ethos by initiating a more collaborative approach to it's creation. For the first time, the project's live band recorded all together in the studio, with Sharlene Birdsong on bass, Dimitri Morris on guitar, and Pat Okerson on drums. As one of the tightest live bands in Indy-who have toured with Dehd and opened for The Flaming Lips, Vampire Weekend, Chvrches, and more-this addition makes Bad Dogs the most dynamic and fully realized 81355 release to date.
