Long Beach California’s The Dingees ‘Dropseeds’ E.P. marks the return of International City Recordings flagship band. After playing strictly ska as ‘Peg & The Rejected’ in recent years, as well as other side projects and solo albums, the original core return with the trademark mix of punk, ska & reggae.

The ecologically themed collection starts with ‘Wild Wind’. A punk rock sound very reminiscent of the Dingees first album, Armageddon Massive. A Jamaican bluebeat inspired ska track follows, as well as a reggae song called ‘Machete Chop’ which showcases the band’s rootsiest sound to date. The final track, ‘Dead Meat’ is a punk track taking cues from the late 80’s rather than the Dingees usual territory of a decade beforehand.

Dropseeds E.P. released on 9/23/2023 on International City Recordings.
