Alternative Rock from Cologne
Alternative Rock from Cologne
Stranger’s Dopamine are heady, emotional, and powerful at the same time. Amidst melancholic alternative rock and rhythmic indie rock, the musicians tell stories of the mysterious new and the dreamy path into the indeterminate.
The band is characterized by rousing bass lines and the unique, two-part vocals of the two singers. Driving drum grooves, two unique voices and melodic guitar playing make Stranger’s Dopamine the next insider tip for nostalgic alternative rock sounds of underground culture.
On 11.12.2020 we finally released our first EP called “nothing but words” after two years of songwriting, performing and recording.
We wrote and recorded the songs “fire” and “world outside” ourselves, while “victim of the modern age” was professionally recorded. You can listen to it on various music streaming sites. We hope you enjoy the songs!

victim of the modern age
Follow me and you will be redeemed
Pray for me and you’ll never have to think
Bleed for me and you’ll never have to die
Die for me and your name we won’t forget
As my sheep you’ll have no worries, feel no pain
And all I ask of you is your gratitude and your soul
Follow me all the way down
Another victim of the modern age
Tell me the colour of time
And all your sins will be redeemed
Desperate times, more desperate measures
You’re a product of the modern age
You may be evil, but so is the world
Call me a cynic, but there ain’t no justice
Sinner and saint, nothing but words
Sinner and saint, just empty words
As my sheep you’ll have no worries, feel no pain
And all I ask of you is your gratitude and your soul
Now follow me all the way down
Another victim of the modern age
Paint with the colour of time
And all your sins I will forget
Now follow me all the way down
Another victim of the modern age
Desperate times, more desperate measures
You’re the product of the modern age
fire
Haven’t you heard that all your friends moved to the coast?
Haven’t you heard that all you’ve loved went up in flames?
Haven’t you heard that you’re not welcome anymore?
Anymore
You’re a stranger to your family
You’re a stranger to yourself
It was the fire of a century
It was the fire of a lifetime
It was the fire of a century
It was the fire of a life
Oh you arrived
But you’re not really here
Oh you don’t belong here
You never did
It was the fire of a century
It was the fire of a lifetime
It was the fire of a century
It was the fire of a lifetime
Half your heart, half your heart
Half your heart, oh half your heart
Half your heart, half your heart
Half your heart, oh half your heart
Half your heart, half your heart
Half your heart, oh half your heart
Is still in Praha
It was the fire of a century
It was the fire of a lifetime
It was the fire of a century
It was the fire of a lifetime
world outside
I died the day you died
Keep the world outside
I died the day you died
Keep the world outside
I died the day you died
Keep the world outside
I died the day you died
Keep the world outside
Maybe you’re right and I can’t be by your side forever
Maybe you’re right and I’m just good for the night
Maybe you’re right and I have no love to give
Maybe you’re right and I am wasting your time
She slips, slips away from me
She starts to fade, fade, fade away
She moves, moves, moves, moves away
Confusion is my state of mind these days
Engineer my soul, oh engineer my life
Engineer my soul, oh engineer my life
I lived my life in spite of all the hardship
I told these lies and I started to live them
I loved my life because of all the hardship
I lived these lies and I started to be them
Can’t you see what happened inside of me?
All that I’ve known is washed away
Can’t you see what happened inside of me?
Seeds have been set and they’re starting to grow
Can’t you see what happened inside of me?
All that I’ve known is washed away
Can’t you see what happened inside of me?
Seeds have been set and they’re starting to grow
Can’t you see what happened inside of me?
All that I’ve known is washed away
Can’t you see what happened inside of me?
Seeds have been set and they’re starting to grow
Seeds have been set and they’re starting to grow
Seeds have been set and they’re starting to grow
Seeds have been set and they’re starting to grow
I died the day you died
Keep the world outside
I died the day you died
Keep the world outside
I died the day you died
Keep the world outside
I died the day you died
Keep the world outside
