Album content

Titular "Doomscroller"

On Misadventures of Doomscroller, the band diverts from their short, more lyrically focused songs of the past, to longer, more instrumental songs. ^[3] Frontman Taylor Goldsmith mentions this while talking about 'Someone Else's Cafe / Doomscroller Tries To Relax' on the Dawes website: "Every time a take was completed felt like a major accomplishment. It being 10 minutes really raised the stakes. Didn’t wanna be the guy to mess up in minute 7 or 8 with everyone playing flawlessly up to that point. This whole album, and this song especially, felt a little beyond our comfort zone and I’m really proud of what that’s done to the music." ^[4]
