On Nov. 11, Dopapod dropped a brand new track entitled “November,” along with a studio video of the single. The single comes after the band teased a release by posting cryptic image on Facebook last Friday.

“November is written from the point of view of a time traveler who arrives in November of our present day, and notices how much different the weather is from when he is from, and is creeped out and unsettled to discover how much the environment has devolved in the future,” explains guitarist Rob Compa via press release.

Given the environmentalist theme of the song, it is no surprise that the band is partnering with Trees, Water & People, an organization dedicated to fighting climate change. 100% of the proceeds generated from “November” will be donated to the charity.

“We felt it was fitting to release the song on the palindromic date of 11.11 and to use it as a vehicle to make a positive impact,” says keyboardist Eli Winderman via press release. “Planting trees is one of the easiest and most effective ways we can help fight climate change. Trees, Water & People is a non-profit company that will be planting trees in North and South America, among many other services.”

Dopapod will return to the road in late November in support of their May release Emit Time.
