"Wattatata," to be released June 12th on California's Finger Records, is DEK's follow-up album to 2004's "Boner". On the road to becoming groggy old men, DEK seems to have finally found their sound, voice, and entered a new era of maturity. Despite this, DEK hasn't lost their unique image. Simply put, "Boner" was DEK on quads and ludes, while "Wattatata" is a cuddly drunk. Let DEK be your bipolar best friend.

Says some chick named Stephanie, "It's more melodic, with longer guitar breakdowns and intros. But the attitude is there, and the fury has tripled, and even though the new songs are closer in heart to Anti-Flag than to the Descendants, DEK are on their way to being one of the most respected punk bands of our time. "

Don't worry, though. If you worshipped "Boner" and it's teenage antics, "Wattatata" won't disappoint. It's still the same old DEK you've come to know and love.
