Dennis is the third studio album Irish-Scottish music producer and musician Sega Bodega. It was released on 26 April 2024 via his own Ambient Tweets label and Supernature.[1][2]

The album explores the feeling of being asleep, and a sense of disorientation surrounding uncertainty.[1][3] Sega Bodega also chose the title based on a theory of collective consciousness, directly referencing the coincidence of the UK and US 'Dennis the Menace' comics premiering on print on the same day in 1951. The title is also a palindrome for "sinned".[4]

It was supported by the singles "Kepko",[5] "Deer Teeth",[6] "Set Me Free, I'm an Animal",[7] "Elk Skin",[3] and "True".[8]

The album art, and its respective singles and promotional art, were shot by Aidan Zamiri.
