The Dogmatics
Oct. 2024 Single
With A Scarlet Letter
New single "With A Scarlet Letter" was written and sung by Peter O'Halloran. This track may come off like a goofy garage/pub rocker on the surface. But at a deeper level, it examines our nation's puritanical heritage and warns of forces in America which seek to erode the separation church and state. So, yeah, it's a fun sing-along number that's also a political anthem. This band never disappoints.

The Dogmatics
Sep. 2024 Single
Library Girl
It steams ahead like the best Dogmatic material... The Dogs are in the same creative tear they were in the early eighties. It’s amazing to see and hear it happen. We have this on our Top Ten songs.
Library Girl is the kind of rock song any fan of this kind of music should get to know to draw The Dogmatics out of the Boston circuit. Yes, Library Girl is that good, believe me.
It's 100% vintage Dogmatics and vintage Jerry Lehane — a mid-tempo punk-pop banger straight out of the Boston garage rock textbook... And some of those lyrics made me laugh out loud!
Oct. 2023 Single
"I Can't Get Over You" is nothing more and nothing less than a straight-ahead rock 'n' roll tune in a timeless style. It's got a great hook, and it will get your toes tapping in no time flat... Jerry Lehane sure knows how to write a three-chord rock 'n' roll tune!
The years seem to just melt away when you hear the new Dogmatics song “I Can’t Get Over You”. The song is mid-80’s Dogmatics ...It has two of the attributes we love the most with punk songs – it’s catchy and short. At 1:52 you can listen to it over and over – you know we did.

The Dogmatics
2022 EP
Drop That Needle
Not content to be remembered for their old classics, The Dogmatics are well on their way to authoring a whole slew of new ones. This band honors the past but is not stuck in it.
The Dogmatics have been at it making great rock n roll for awhile now. The passion is clearly still there on the latest single “Drop That Needle”
The recording is sharp, the beat is urgent, the guitar solos are restrained and hit their mark. The Dogmatics have the ability to capture a time gone by with a song that makes your feet move now.
‘Treat’ yourself and blast this new Dogmatics release out of your speakers large and small! ‘Drop That Needle’ repeatedly on this one!
“This was the track I was most excited to hear, and it does not disappoint!
You can feel Paul's spirit in this recording, and his lyrics are truly chilling in the wake of what's been happening to our environment in recent decades.”
– Lord Rutledge, Faster and Louder

Limited Edition Translucent Orange Flexi 7″ Record featuring the 2022 XM Radio hit “Automat Kalashnikov” along with the classic track “You Say”.
