Dosser "Born For Nothing/Born By Mistake

About this item

• Description • Pressing Info • • Baltimore’s Dosser return with Born for Nothing/Born by Mistake, their second full-length and first for Iodine Recordings. Building on the dense, melodic alternative rock of Violent Picture/Violent Sound, the band pushes further into the tension between heaviness and restraint, drawing from the weight and atmosphere of Failure, HUM, Shiner, Heatmiser, and Jawbox while maintaining a sound distinctly their own. Across eight songs, Born for Nothing/Born by Mistake circles feelings of isolation, exhaustion, disconnection, and the search for something solid in a world that increasingly treats people as disposable. The album’s title emerged from an unlikely exchange with a suspected bot account, whose broken response, “good for nothing, born for nothing, born by mistake,” became an unexpectedly fitting metaphor for the record. Recorded, produced, and mixed by Jon Markson (Drug Church, Drain, Koyo) and mastered by Mike Kalajian, Born for Nothing/Born by Mistake captures Dosser at their most focused, balancing layered guitars, driving rhythms, and melodic immediacy with the urgency of the Baltimore DIY scene.
