<\/p>\nDexter and The Moonrocks made their national TV debut on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, and brought their biggest hit to show exactly what they are made of.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
That song is \u2018Freakin\u2019 Out\u2019, which has seen the band so viral across TikTok and allowed them to rack up 165 million streams on Spotify alone. <\/p>\n
And in bringing it to national television, they demonstrate exactly why it has become such a sensation. Combining the slack heaviness of grunge with the intense catchiness of modern rock, it already feels like a timeless hit. And the quartet look the part too, very much at home on such a grand stage. <\/p>\n
It\u2019s another step toward total world domination, and they haven\u2019t even got out of first gear yet.<\/p>\n
The song is set to be on Dexter and The Moonrocks\u2019 newly announced album \u2018Friends I Don\u2019t Like\u2019, which will be released on October 02 via Severance Records\/Big Loud Rock.<\/p>\n
Drummer Ryan Fox had this to say about the record and what it represents for them:<\/p>\n
\u201cFor a long time, people have been struggling to place us as a band. Coming up in the Texas music scene came with its own expectations and stigma. We always seemed to piss off the honky tonkers and underwhelm the old school metal heads, and to be quite frank, we never cared. People kept telling us we had to lean one way or the other, or else no one would ever care. This album feels like a culmination of us tuning out all the bullsh*t and just being the 4 blue-collar rockers from small-town Texas that we always were. This album feels like an ode to everything we love about our upbringing and everything we wanted to change when we were young. We couldn\u2019t be prouder of the work we\u2019ve put in, and our ability to stay ourselves. I couldn\u2019t tell you what Dexter And The Moonrocks means. Are we country, grunge, alt rock, southern rock? Honestly, who cares. All I know is that we\u2019re here and we aren\u2019t going anywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n
