DARLING. Brisbane, Australia
DARLING. is the bedroom project of Caitlin Finn and Joel Glazebrook (Edith Thomas Furey), combining the bleak atmospherics
and shoegaze sensibilities of their previous projects.
Incorporating a range influences into an experimental, moody fugue, DARLING. have spent these last few plague-years slowly refining their sound, which reflects their own despair and joy.

An endless skyline of dusky golden light over Moreton Bay that's where this record lives. I always admire when bands can work imagery of their city into songs. This is especially nice when it comes to the areas in and around Meanjin, a place we hear far too little of.

Slow-burning, sax-enhanced groovy psychedelic rock with warm male vocals counterpointed by female ones ranging from the biting to the spiritual to the tribal. Makes me think of a lighter and way more transcendental version of early Goat. However, looking at the other comments, it seems that this music has got the power to bring to mind very different things to different people, and this means that there's definitely something unique and great going on.

One-man project Vlimmer exists in the borderlands between post-punk and industrial/EBM, creating danceable darkness.
