The songs grew into a fast and scruffy EP, released in the summer of 2017 \u2013 and now the self-titled debut album is finally here.<\/p>\n<p class=\"size-16\" lang=\"x-size-16\">Wet Dreams is a punk rock\/garage group from Oslo consisting of members from FOAMMM, Warp Riders, De Marvells as well as the aforementioned Death By Unga Bunga. They played one of their first ever concerts at Norway\u2019s biggest festival, \u00d8ya in 2017, which lead to them being highlighted by\u00a0NME as one of the\u00a0best discoveries from the event where they described them as being for fans of <em>&#8220;The Ramones to The Vaccines&#8221;<\/em> and said their set was like &#8220;<em>Motorhead covering The Hives\u201d<\/em>. In 2018\u00a0they have played festivals in Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Norway. Following the album release in March 2019 the band will tour Norway, Europe and the US.<\/p>\n<p>Wet Dreams recorded the album by themselves, while \u00d8ystein Braut (Electric Eye, Dig Deeper, Soft Ride, Low Frequency in Stereo) aced the mixing, birthing an album of gritty, aggressive and ultra-catchy punk rock n roll.<\/p>\n<p>Songwriter Sebastian Ulstad Olsen had\u00a0this to say on the sound of the band:\u00a0<em>&#8220;Even if the song structures aren\u2019t miles away from the stuff I write in Death By Unga Bunga, I\u2019ve been longing to challenge the recording and production process. I love music that bends the rules, so Wet Dreams is a great laboratory for this purpose.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The record is about the idea of being \u2013 or trying to be \u2013 \u201clarger than life\u201d\u00a0to conceal one\u2019s own insecurities. The collection on the surface may appear a classic testosterone-fueled out-pour, but the lyrics combat this with belief\u00a0that ultimately we\u2019re all just humans with the same fundamental needs and desires.<\/p>\n<p>The Wet Dream-song <em>I Can Fly<\/em> will be featured in an upcoming episode of the US TV show &#8216;War Games&#8217; &#8211; an interactive up-to-date take on the 1983 classic Matthew Broderick-starring\u00a0film.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Norway&#8217;s newest power-punks Wet Dreams have shared the video for their brand new single titled\u00a0Bad Boy and have also announced their debut self-titled album which <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=30279\" title=\"Oslo-punks Wet Dreams share new single &#8216;Bad Boy&#8217;\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":30280,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false},"categories":[22,23,28,29,30,4165],"tags":[7869,7872,6572,7870,7871,6068],"class_list":["post-30279","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-guitar-rock","category-indie","category-music","category-music-video","category-new-release","category-punk","tag-bad-boy","tag-de-marvells","tag-death-by-unga-bunga","tag-foammm","tag-warp-riders","tag-wet-dreams"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/ByNickMalte2017-990000079e04513c.jpg?fit=900%2C602&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2B2TV-7Sn","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":30511,"url":"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=30511","url_meta":{"origin":30279,"position":0},"title":"Oslo-punks Wet Dreams reveal new single &#8216;Radioactivity&#8217;","author":"cultureaddicts","date":"March 3, 2019","format":false,"excerpt":"Norway's power-punks Wet Dreams have shared a brand new single titled Radioactivity, which will be the final taster of their debut self-titled album due for release on March 29th via Black Pop Records.
