Doot-Doot is the debut studio album by the Welsh new wave and synth-pop band Freur, released in 1983 by CBS Records. 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.
