Darts - Below Empty & Westward Bound (2015)

Melbourne alt-rockers and lovers of 90s guitar are dropping their brand new debut LP titled Below Empty & Westward Bound via Sydney label Rice Is Nice this Friday the 15th of May, but ahead of its official debut they’ve given us a sneak preview of the refreshingly energetic 12 track release.

Following on from the release of their attention grabbing singles ‘Westward Bound’ and ‘Aeroplane’ the five piece’s new LP treads the line of referencing the influence of 90s alt-guitar rock and while carving their own unique sound and staying catchy as hell.

The band’s Angus Ayres explains some of the messages behind the record: “The album has an underlying theme throughout stemming from frustrations transitioning into adulthood. It’s a desperate sadness and anger that you feel once you bottom out from the weight of anxiety and isolation.”
Check out Below Empty & Westward Bound below, and if you like what you hear be sure to pop by Rice Is Nice to order your copy of the album, and don’t miss the guys as they roll into your city (currently geraing up for a tour with Alpine).
