Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
PDOA (Public Display of Affection) have returned with a love manifesto for our uncertain future. Madeleine Rose, Lewis Lloyd, Anton Remy, and Jesper Munk are pleased to announce the release of their debut album I STILL CARE on September 30.

Recorded in January 2022 in the Polish countryside with Myles DeTaco on an eight track reel-to-reel, I STILL CARE showcases the band exploring the interstices obscured by their old wilful abandon, deepening the full on post-punk assault of the 2021 debut EP with an even slinkier vibe and a newly devastating emotional punch. From the devilish vibe of “Fishing Hook” to the crushing lament of “Pink City,” PDOA take us through a world where “chivalry is dead,” every day is a riot, and the stench of the trashed past hangs in the thick air. Sometimes, as on “Spider,” PDOA take us to the center of that riot; sometimes, as on “Goodbye Watchmen,” we hike some place beautiful with them and watch the city combust from far, far away. As the album ends with the raucous “Exit,” it’s clear we’ve been been knocked down and flattened out no matter where we stand.

PDOA will set out on the road in support of I STILL CARE. Their live shows hark back to the fearless eccentricity explored by the Berlin performance art and music collectives of the 1980’s. Following recent gigs across Europe’s summer festival circuit (Fusion, Skandaløs, Reeperbahn, and Pop Kultur), they are excited to return to intimate club settings.

With I STILL CARE, PDOA still hit the golden ratio between the soulful and the sinful. This time, though, they also come straight for your gut.

#Artificial Paradise Snuck into the back of the zoo So I could Swim with the sharks And William Dafoe A kid in the dark And I was there with Scooby Doo He said your dead to me Close to disappearing No coming back He love the attention Drove me away Away, Away, Away The lines are down My showers warm Lips are wet Panties Snap Breath is panting Panting Panting Every daisy has to dance alone In the south of China Every donkey has to stretch My hair is wrapped The echo repeats An invitation I cannot refuse Her French fragrance has me so confused Crash Smash My Legs recall your scratch Try not to look through the fire Try not to look through the fire She found him with a needle in his arm Now he’s gone No-one can save you No-one can save you No there’s nothing you can do Do about it! Will you dance with me? Will you dance with me? If I choose you to dance with me? Will you? Try not to look through the fire Try not to look through the fire Try not to look through the fire Try not to look through the fire by Madeleine Rose
