12” EP – Standard Edition Black Vinyl.

Londons gothic five-piece, Dog Race, unveil Return The Daya debut EP that drags you deep into the fog of burnout, codependency, and emotional stasis. Across five tracks, the band unspools the slow horror of fading joy and fractured identity, where insomnia bleeds into daylight and personal growth is sacrificed to keep others comfortable. Following the stark theatrics of Its The Squeeze and the icy operatic swell of The Leader which earned praise from BBC Radio 6, landed them in NMEs 2025 Top 100, and left Anthony Fantano in awe, placing Its The Squeeze at #11 in his Best Singles of 2024 the EP pushes further into the dark. Operatic vocals drift through modulated guitars and synths that crackle with unease. Produced by Ali Chant and released via Fascination Street Records, Return The Day captures a band fully embracing psychological unrest and emotional paralysis. Dog Race may take their time, but they strike hard.
