THE NEW DUMB is a band

before i forget, check out these kind words that showed up in the great scott newsletter:

The New Dumb with Nassy, Aloha Sarcophagus (CD Release), Rat City 3
THURSDAY 05.06.10

The New Dumb is more than just the band responsible for some of the best show flyers in the city, as this lovable local trio has been churning out some ultra-fine McLusky-flavored DIY indie rock since 2006's "This Could Be Disastrous." But the scene veterans are saying goodbye for the time being, as drummer Brian "Neogonzo" Rusnica posted on Lemmingtrail that the other dudes in the band are expecting children. Crazy! The New Dumb is truly the 1994 Arnold Schwarzenegger flick "Junior" of Boston's rock scene, and no doubt will be lending their fertile male bodies to science. Joining their farewell is sassy post-punk harmonic kids Nassy, "molar-gnashing" punk dudes Rat City 3 and Aloha Sarcophagus, which keeps the whole giving birth theme alive with a CD release party...

neat!

friends, the hour is drawing near. for those of you who don't know, two of our fine fellows will be welcoming new family members this summer, and we'll be taking some time off from entertaining you. before we do so, please come and experience a feel-good set that will provide you with enough memories to get you this particularly rough patch without us. if you were ever waiting to see a show of ours, i guess this would be the time. ♥

hey, bandcamp is a cool new minimalistic place to host your music and such. i spent some time putting up some music here. pretty cool. if you are feeling particularly saucy, we'll let you download our whole new record on there. COOL. http://thenewdumb.bandcamp.com/

cool !

hey dudes, our friends in Hangman's Alphabet won't be able to play with us tonight due to a loss in the family. That means we'll probably go on a little earlier than usual, so let's say 9:00pm to be safe. Our thoughts are with our HA compadres, during this tough time.

thanks!

AWESOME!!

very nice preview from PLAYGROUNDBOSTON.com : http://playgroundboston.com/2009/10/30/pgb-pick-future-of-the-left-with-the-beatings-the-new-dumb-tt-the-bears-111/

...Which brings us to The New Dumb, a self-described indie punk rock band from Allston. This trio has a great sound – driving basslines, a little bit of twang to their guitars, and a certain casual, almost nonchalant sensibility to the vocals that makes their music all the more catchy. What I’ve heard from their album shows a healthy amount of versatility too, its not just another case of a band with all their songs sounding exactly the same.
