Sirens In The Delta - Revolutions To Follow EP |
Release Date: 27th October 2014
Right then, who the hell is ready
for a bit of dirty rock'n'roll from the North-East? Well, ready or not, here
they come. Sirens In The Delta are a female fronted, rock quintet from Teesside
and this is their latest EP which gets underway with the superbly hypnotic
riffs of 'Dirty Words' that is as strong a start to a record as I've heard in a
long time. Pounding snare, soulful rock vocals and a Queens Of The Stone Age
style bass line all make for an extremely promising start that make you sit up
and pay attention. 'Paris' is the single taken from the EP and you can see why
as the motorcycle grease and leather seeps from every pore as the vocals of
frontwoman Katie snake and wind around you like smoke in the night-time. On
'Casus Belli' the guitars take on a more traditional form with a Black Sabbath
vibe given a Yeah Yeah Yeahs twist as an ominously regular snare pierces the
relentless chugging of those huge guitars.
There is a huge gap in the UK
market for a band like this and luckily Sirens In The Delta have an epic enough
sound to fill it with enough left over to have a stab at the US as well. The
next track, 'Halo', shows off the band's versatility as they employ a jerky,
indie-punk riff and those vocals open up to really soar with supreme power in
the choruses. 'The Attack' is the rock ballad of the piece and despite the
grinding bass and stabbing drums it never quite breaks stride which is a
difficult discipline to master. The EP closes out with 'Weapon' which is the
most snarling, lip curling, spit in your eye and grab you by the crotch track
on the collection as the tempo changes at the flick of a wrist and the attacks
keep on coming. Sirens In The Delta have a future and a big one at that, I just
wish they could have recorded another four tracks to make this in to a tight
little album.
