5) Office Dog - Gleam

News from Auckland, New Zealand heavy-rock / post-punk trio... 

Album, 'Spiel' — out September 15 via Flying Nun Records. 

Introducing Office Dog, hailing from Ōtepoti/Dunedin and residing in Tāmaki Makaurau/Auckland. 

The trio, led by Kane Strang on guitar/vocals, alongside Rassani Tolovaa on bass and Mitchell Innes on drums, present their debut album 'Spiel' — out 15 September 2023 via Flying Nun Records on CD, standard black LP, limited edition clear LP and across all digital streaming platforms. Assembling intricate musical collages, Office Dog fearlessly explore the depths of complex emotions through layers of tension, release, and celestial lyricism. Office Dog formed in 2021. Amidst a busy solo career, front-person Kane Strang sought a more collaborative musical outlet. He teamed up with fellow musicians and previous collaborators Mitchell Innes and Rassani Tolovaa, and the trio began writing together across various locations in Tāmaki Makaurau/Auckland. Over the next year, fragments began assembling into songs, ultimately culminating in the creation of Office Dog’s debut full-length album, 'Spiel', recorded in collaboration with producer De Stevens at Roundhead Studios and mastered by Jonathan Pearce (The Beths). “Sorry for the spiel” — Office Dog’s upcoming album serves an introspective on profound experiences, turmoil and hopeful prospect, inviting you to unveil these themes layer by layer through the trio’s musical catharsis. 

Engineered, mixed and produced by De Stevens at Roundhead Studios Mastered by Jonathan Pearce Artwork by Daniel Blackball Alexander Vocals and Guitar: Kane Strang Bass: Rassani Tolovaa Drums: Mitchell Innes Piano on Antidote, Warmer and Teeth: De Stevens All songs written by Office Dog
