This shared history has played a vital role in establishing an independent framework that supports the renaissance of STATIC-X, ensuring that the band’s music resonates with both loyal fans and new audiences.
Dope’s vision for STATIC-X is crystal clear – to preserve the excitement, energy, and essence of “evil disco.” While acknowledging the skepticism surrounding their journey without Wayne Static, Dope is committed to allowing fans to relish in STATIC-X’s music without reservation, celebrating the band’s legacy rather than lamenting its loss.
