BUY PHYSICAL CD (and enamel pins!)
"The Book Was Better" came out last week and we have great news: because of the incredible support of the Doubleclicks community, our album is #1 on the Billboard Comedy albums chart! It's also #13 on the Heatseekers Chart and #27 on the Independent Albums Chart. Thank you so much!
“The Book Was Better” is about a lot of things: gender, dogs, cats, anxiety, Halloween, and pizza are some of the things. But the big theme is this: We spend too much time yelling on the Internet, and we should all try something else. Certainly we can’t stop using the Internet, that would be ridiculous. But just a tiny break sometimes, yeah — that’s probably good. Go to a museum. Go roller skating and break your arm. Try to throw a birthday party and don’t cancel it when you get overwhelmed at the very idea of human interaction.It's a comedy album.
"The Book Was Better" is the Doubleclicks' sixth album. It was funded by a Kickstarter project earlier this year!The Book Was Better had a big first week — on Friday we also launched the first video from the album, for one of the more serious tracks on the record — "Panic." This song is about our experience with panic attacks and the important sentiment — "it's ok to not be ok." It features trumpets by Paul Sabourin of Paul & Storm.[embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNsobrXSLd8[/embed]The video debuted on Paste Magazine, with an interview and review of the new record.
The Doubleclicks are a band. They’re also more than a band. The Doubleclicks are a subscription to an ideology. There are beliefs, tenets, lore, and a message. There are events, multimedia, interaction, and big ideas. It’s a cult of personality in which the personalities invite you to focus on yourself and your approach to the world around you, in hopes of making us all better. - Paste Magazine

The second video came out on The Mary Sue, and fans can find all the videos on YouTube!The band is also on tour right now, playing songs from the new album all over the US and Europe throughout 2019.
