WIDGET waste no time getting bodies moving with “Dogs Don’t Lie,” a sharp, playful blast of disco-punk energy. The new single lands as the latest preview of their debut album ‘Classy Hits Vol.2,’ out April 24. It captures the band’s chaotic charm and dancefloor instincts in full colour, pushing their sound further into bold, rhythm-driven territory.
The track leans into absurdity and connection, built around a simple truth that hits hard in a hyper-online world. The band call it a “sonnet for the chronically online,” packed with humor, repetition, and a hook that sticks immediately. It is loud, strange, and deeply fun, the kind of song that turns a packed room into a chorus within seconds.
The video adds another layer, cutting found footage from a 70s skateboarding safety film into something surreal and oddly nostalgic. Edited by bassist Elena Agulla Gil, it mirrors the band’s collage-like style, where references collide and meaning builds through movement and rhythm. It feels loose, inventive, and completely aligned with WIDGET’s visual identity.
‘Classy Hits Vol.2’ arrives with serious momentum behind it. Recorded in just four days and shaped entirely within the band’s own creative circle, the album channels their live intensity into a tight, propulsive listen. Scratchy guitars, tape-soaked synths, and relentless percussion drive songs that feel immediate and alive.
This is music built for sweat, release, and collective noise. “Dogs Don’t Lie” hits with urgency and bounce, another standout moment from a group that understands exactly how to turn a room into a celebration.
