"It's been something like 18 years since we released any new music, and the inescapable questions are why? And...why now? The honest truth? I have no fucking idea."
"We've never tried to do this band as some kind of a career, and so we've never felt the pressure that comes from that. We do feel extremely grateful that, for whatever reasons, people all over the world are still willing to come check us out."
"The balance of the shit we've been doing in our lives, parenting, work, hobbies, etc., has just seemed to fall into place in the past couple years to where now there's some room to get back to finishing some music."
"'Don't Happy Be Worry' is a direct and melodic punk rock track that wouldn't have been out of place in the 1970s, marrying power pop anthemics to a driving punk base."
Dillinger Four has released 'Don't Happy Be Worry,' their first new song in 18 years. Despite not releasing music, the band remained active with live performances. Singer-guitarist Erik Funk expressed uncertainty about the long hiatus but noted a recent balance in their lives allowed for new music. The new song features a melodic punk rock style reminiscent of the 1970s. Although no album announcement was made, the band has a collection of new material ready and is set to begin a short tour in Japan.
