Get to know the band of brothers a bit better whilst enjoying their latest track.

Dubinski are back with their latest track, Downtown Operation. After releasing their debut album ‘Dubinski’ in 2022 the brand of brothers have recently released another energetic track to add to their ever intriguing repetroire.

Downtown Operation, fast paced and free feeling, this song boasts an optimistic edge that makes you feel as though you are soaring away from everything, getting out without missing a breathe. Estatic, you escape adversity with a smile on your face. With its electronic feel, you imagine yourself plugging into something surreal, full of synthetic sounds and digital beats, this track feels futuristic whilst still being familiar but that is just the beauty of their instrumentals whilst the lyrics unveil something deeper, more sinister that would have you running but certainly not with a smile on your face.

Inspired by politicians who are blind to reality, this song offers a satirical edge, a refection of racial profiling, police brutality. It is a forewarning, the sound of despair, a lighthouse to the terrors of the world but no one is turning the torch on, too scared of what they may see.

Lets review the journey that took them to this release; their self-titled debut album, Dubinski, showcased in 2022 is an eclectic audio tour of the band’s buoyant feeling, their ability to discuss darker topics whilst keeping the crowd bouncing with their high energy and altruism.

Dubinski Debut Album Tour:

Track One: Soothsayer.

If you could see the future would you live your life differently to try and change fate? Would this power prevent you from living in the present? Dark spirited and unsettling this song offers a gothic hand through the bands disinticnve indie feel. Arguably seeing the tone for the debut album.

Track Two:Gotta Get Out Of This Place.

We are all trying to get out of ‘this place’ but where are we trying to end up? All the weekends we live for end up the same, stumbling out of the same local and into a different bed, waking up with a banging head being sick at the things you said.

Dubinksi are colour engine of sound and eccentricity, a fusion of creativity and the bizarre. The shape of their sound is massive as they pull us up and over ourselves.

The album focus track ‘Gotta Get Outta This Place’ is rooted in their hard-working studio dynamic, with their producers Mike and Robbie pushing Eugene to record his vocals more than 20 times before the
perfect take emerged.

Track Nine: Beyond Me

Upbeat and optimistic this track is evocative of the band’s high energy live performances. A kaleidoscope of better days.Making the most of each moment and living for it. Making the sun shine when your days are full of storms. The opening is very brit pop infused with the riff taking me straight into the foamier hold of Blur’s parklike, making beyond me a sure favourite for the summer festivals.

Track 12: Fall Right In The Grave

Grief, the devastating notion that things will be how they always were, conversations become monologues and potential is frozen, once we were forever fearing change now praying for it this track is all about coming to terms with death but feeling wounded and angered by its inevitability.

Taken as a whole, Dubinski’s debut album is a shattering, cathartic experience. It’s a record
fuelled by brotherhood, by loss and by the empowering impact of communal emotion.
More than anything else, it’s a launching point, a marker of the sheer will that has dragged
Dubinski from the Highlands of Scotland out into the world.

“I sometimes wonder what
the hell we would be doing if we didn’t have this band,” drummer Eoin muses. “It’s the
umbilical cord that keeps us all together”.
