DOPE BODY voted “Best New Band” in Baltimore City Paper:

“Holyfuckingshit, when Dope Body started playing sometime early last year, making blistering, inventive art-punk that is actually punk, we had no idea it would grow up to be the kind of force-of-nature the trio is now. You see this band play and it’s like a rush of something scraping all the cynicism and shit out of your veins and just leaving you smiling—because if a band can still make this kind of music, things might just be alright.” – CP

And “Best Trend”? MUSIC VIDEOS SHOT ON FILM:

“Don’t get us wrong: We love that digital video is so affordable and responsive that bands can shoot and edit videos themselves and have them posted online quickly. But there’s still something romantic about film, especially when it’s used in a music video. First Mary Helena Clark’s gorgeously abstract and experiential video for Future Islands’ “As I Fall” reminded us that celluloid still has textures that DV can’t always approximate. And then Matthew Porterfield’s seismic collage for Dope Body’s “Enemy Outta Me” reminded us that there still exist some underground sounds that scream for grainy film images rather than smooth and flat DV polish.” – CP
