| Dahlia FX - Stone Cold Silver EP |
Dahlia FX are a British duo who
specialise in a very niche area of music. Essentially, all the songs on this EP
could all be the feedback and sustain laden end to a My Bloody Valentine set.
Now, that doesn't make songs like 'Stone Cold Silver' and 'Custom Built Buddah'
bad but it does make them particularly suited to a very specific set of
circumstances - those circumstances being late at night when the you're in a
slightly more inebriated state than your average rock'n'roll star. 'Future
Thing' is more of the same - layers of feedback, pounding drums and vocals that
are coming from somewhere down a hall inside my mind. The lightness of 'Breezed
In' is a welcome respite from the aural onslaught but, as it only lasts a
minute and a half, 'She's A Screamer' takes you right back in the pits of
fiery, rock'n'roll debauchery and tortured souls. If I walked in to the right
club with the right percentage of Jack Daniels in my blood stream then this
would be awesome music. On a stone-cold sober Monday night in front of a
roaring fire, however, this doesn't quite hit the spot.
