The Do est un duo franco-finlandais composé de Dan Lévy et d'Olivia B. Merilahti. Tous deux se sont rencontrés en travaillant sur la B.O du film L'Empire des loups du réalisateur Chris Nahon.
Le duo a sorti son premier album en janvier 2007 intitulé A Mouthful dans lequel on retrouve des sonorités pop, folk, rap ou rock. Un carton commercial.
Mais The Dø était trop férocement indépendant et audacieux pour se contenter d’une copie carbone. La paire s’est donc lancée dans une nouvelle aventure. En 2011 sort l'inattendu Both Ways Open Jaws. De la primale Slippery Slope à l’électronique folle de B.W.O.J., une brillante messe sombre, brute autant que raffinée, préhistorique et civilisée à la fois.
Il se passe, dans les interstices de la belle Dust It off, des amères et majestueuses Gonna Be Sick ! ou Too Insistent, dans les ombres changeantes de The Wicked & the Blind ou Bohemian Dances, dans les arrangements veloutés de Was It a Dream ? beaucoup de choses qui semblent n’appartenir qu’à une religion inédite. A laquelle on s’est définitivement converti.
Make up your mind
Where do we start?
Thinking of me
You're not allowed
Dangerous crowds
Pressing me into unthinkable voids
Are you a curse?
From bad to worse
Our affair
Helpless as I'm
Trying to react
You were the worst idea I ever had
Sometimes I wonder how I landed in a mess like this
And then you're walking through the door
And not a thing goes wrong
Sometimes you wonder how we landed in a mess like this
And bells they ring there's a day
When they will ring for us
Give me your heart
I'll give you mine
Hopeless exchange
Chapter erased
They say we're young
Too young to marry
Not too young to die
Sometimes I wonder how I landed in a mess like this
And then you're walking through the door and not a thing goes wrong
Sometimes you wonder how we landed in a mess like this
And bells they ring there's a day
When they will ring for us
Wonder how we landed in a mess like this
Walking through the door and not a thing goes wrong
Wonder how we landed in a mess like this
Ring there's a day when they will ring for
Sometimes you wonder how we landed in a mess like this
And then you're walking through the door and not a thing goes wrong
Sometimes we wonder how we landed in a mess like this
And bells they ring there's a day when they will ring for us
