Rather than lay down their latest batch of Beach Boys- and Beatles-inspired psych-pop themselves, as they'd done in the past, McMicken says the group decided to experiment with outside production.

Dr. Dog's new album Shame, Shame will be released April 6th by ANTI- Records, their first record for the label. The band is
scheduled to tour this spring.
When it came time to craft their latest record, the members of Philadelphia quintet Dr. Dog were shooting for something different. Rather than lay down their latest batch of Beach Boys- and Beatles-inspired psych-pop themselves, as they'd done in the past, singer/guitarist Scott McMicken says the group decided to experiment with outside production.
