Dark Captain Light Captain 'Miracle Kicker' cd/lp LoAF Recordings Released 27th October 08
|
| Driven by a quest for a killer vocal harmony and a constant desire to make their hearts beat ever so slightly faster than normal, Dark Captain Light Captain offer up their much anticipated debut album ‘Miracle Kicker’. | |
'There are countless acts out there weaving folk tinged melodies and circling acoustic guitars with electronic chimes and beats but you'll have to go a long way to hear it done with this level of emotion and originality or with such delicate vocal harmonies'. MixMag 'Underneath the menace of the bleak (but very tuneful) acoustic guitar/laptop/trumpet battles lurks Dan Carney's occasionally weary tales of quite but definite personal hysteria, all told in a sweet estuary twang...a charming record and one liable to sting you if you're not paying attention'. The Fly Magazine 'A sweetness infuses every song as the vocal harmonies blend over the crisp, acoustic=electric arrangements' Plan B boasting tuneful acoustic guitar melodies and subtle yet effective trademarked wisping vocals...when you play this cd you often forget it;s actually on but when it finishes one feels slightly alone and you have to put it on again..' Clash Magazine 'Like a rustic Air adrift in a haze of woozy acoustica, DCLC's debut washes over the listener, the Wicker Man-style soundscapes smothered by multilayered harmonies that sigh with vague unease' Q Magazine 'Nu-folk wannabes are clogging up our arteries at the moment but you can't switch off and miss a gem like this.DCLC specialise in acidy, harmony-drenched acoustics. Lilting like Simon & Garfunkel over ominous guitar picks and swooning strings, it's a delicious face-off between dark and light. If an album's worth of psych-pop-folk meandering sounds too much, just listen to Questions... and beg for more later'. Teletext |
