'Dopamine' is a drug record, but not in the way you might think.
Chances are, if you’re reading this you’re burnt out. You’re tired, you’re stressed, you’re working. You’re surviving.
So what do we do? We consume. Turning to screens, alcohol, substances and transactional relationships for a quick fix of dopamine, a little endorphin rush, a sharp boost of oxytocin.
As we move along, our tolerance for all of these things rises, and our capacity to operate without them falls. We block up our neurotransmitters, and need more and more hits just to function and feel human. Put simply, it’s addiction.
It’s ruining our brains, taking over our lives, but it’s all so… gratifying.
Set in a not-too-distant and - crucially - not-at-all-unrealistic future, Normandie’s fourth album, ‘Dopamine’ finds the band asking and answering two unsettling questions: what if we pushed our brains and bodies far beyond their limits?
And what if we already are?
