Dancehall, the U.K. and Netherlands-based post-punk trio, is set to release their second album, 100% Music, on October 24. This album promises a more polished follow-up to their raw 2018 debut, blending humor and urgency while exploring personal themes such as fatherhood, sobriety, and neurodivergence. The lead single "Fun" reflects a cynical yet relatable take on growth and identity from the ’90s to today. Collaborating with producer Christopher Smith and mixer Hank Sullivant, the band aims for a vibrant, playful sound that pushes beyond their DIY roots. Pre-orders for the album, available in digital and limited-edition hot pink vinyl, are now open on Bandcamp.
As Dancehall evolves sonically, how do you think their personal experiences will resonate with listeners who may not share the same backgrounds but are navigating similar challenges?
