Fate (Dr. Dog album)


Fate is the fifth album by Philadelphia indie rock band Dr. Dog. It was released on July 22, 2008. The album introduces some new studio elements to their established indie rock sound.

Background

Pre-orders from the album, depending on where it was pre-ordered, included signed CD art, a signed or unsigned 7" with two new songs, stickers, posters, t-shirts, and the album on vinyl.
The song "My Friend" was featured in trailers for the Judd Apatow film Funny People.

Album cover

The cover is a picture of a painting with the outlines sewn on done by Chicago native Ken Ellis. It was directly inspired by a picture of ill-fated outlaw duo Bonnie and Clyde. When the members of Dr. Dog saw the painting at Chicago's Rainbo Club, where Ellis bartended, they quickly bought it from him. They then used it as the album cover because they thought it fit with the general aesthetic of the album.
