Doot-Doot is the debut
studio album by the Welsh
new wave and
synth-pop band
Freur, released in 1983 by
CBS Records.
[3] The
cassette version of the album included four extra tracks. The lead single, "Doot-Doot", peaked at No. 59 on the
UK Singles Chart and No. 17 in
New Zealand. The song "Doot-Doot" has appeared in several films, including
Let Me In (2010) and
Vanilla Sky (2001).
CD release
The album was unavailable on
CD until it was
reissued by
Oglio Records in 1993 in the
United States. The album has since been reissued twice in the
United Kingdom, in 2000 by
Columbia Records and subsequently in 2009 by
Cherry Red Records as
Get Us out of Here/Doot-Doot – which includes both Freur albums on one CD.
