Dot Dash - winter garden light (The Beautiful Music)

The second album from US (Washington DC to be exact) band Dot Dash is a indie pop/rock gem packed full of great melodies and post-punk energy both of which are really evident on the powerful opener "Faraway". A track I particularly love though "Countdown" with its jangly pop rush and great also is the robust pop of "Writing on the wall" which has a great melody and beat.

"The past is another country" has some great guitar work packed into a song thats over in an instant. "The Devil's road" has a great noisy fuzz grind to it. There are some truly great songs on here, Dot Dash remind me of some of the great US and UK indie rock bands i used to listen to but also have a freshness and style that marks them out as something special and new. Great album indeed!

"Winter garden light" is available now on The Beautful Music.
