**SEPTEMBER 18, 2023 (Portland, OR) – **“Musically, ‘**The Summer of Hate**’ became
our homage to the sounds of The Damned, The MC5, and probably a bit of the Stooges
in there as well,” says **Courtney Taylor-Taylor** of rockers **THE DANDY WARHOLS.**
Talking about their propulsive and powerful new single **“[The Summer of Hate](https://reybee.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984&id=e8de7febdf&e=615f2b8493)”**
whose A.I.-generated video is released today, he adds, “The record was the manifestation
of our desire to hear a record of heavy raw punk and metal guitar riffs handled 
in a way that we felt was cooler than the standard knuckle draggin’ man-rock that
still tends to dominate a lot of popular culture in America.”

Combining minor chords and styling them into a revved and greased banger, “The Summer
of Hate” marks a swift left hook by a band whose ability to defy odds and switch
gears has been a trademark of their indefinable alt-rock foundation. A psych-rock
manifesto that incorporates gritty guitars and fuzzed-out vocals with a rhythm so
supple and sexy that it belongs on constant rotation on a midnight dancefloor, it’s
the perfect embodiment of what Rock And Folk called “the band we’ve all been waiting
for.”

“_I want to get down / Just lay on the floor / I can’t remember what it’s like to
not feel nervous anymore_,” he sings amidst a rhythm of swirling guitars and a muscular
rhythm section, embracing the Motor City’s penchant for in-your-face rock. “The 
summer of 2020 was hell in Portland, Oregon with the riots and destruction of the
downtown area,” he explains the song’s distinct and firm origin, encircling the 
current state of his cherished Pacific Northwest home base.

The neon-drenched video which premiered today with **[Brooklyn Vegan](https://reybee.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f67b4587af2b2ef9aa80ed984&id=05ccb9ccd3&e=615f2b8493)**
was completely created by A.I.

“Apparently A.I. felt that what his track is about is a macabre alien hot cave dance
party/’60s mini motorcycle rally, and it pretty much nailed it,” he laughs, pointing
out the weird and wild imagery he and the video’s creator concocted. “A.I. is like
a brilliant child, complete with ego and defense mechanisms. If you try to control
it too much, it will rebel by doing some fucked up shit to your project.”

The band kicks off a run of West Coast and Southwest dates this October with** The
Black Angels **(**Queen Kwong** opens about half the dates).  Starting in Tempe,
AZ’s _The Marquee_ on Oct. 6, they will be hitting Los Angeles, San Francisco, Vancouver,
Dallas and headlining the LEVITATION Festival in Austin with numerous other cities
along the way.
