Darlings release EP, play Shea Stadium

Will the new decade see a resurgence of the electric guitar based sound? A simplified look at the history of rock music in the last 4 decades might hint at that possibility: 70s = punk guitars, 80s = new wave keyboards, 90s = indie rock guitars, 00s = avant-indie samplers 10s = …guitars back in fashion?!). If this prediction is correct, NYC’s Darlings might find themselves in a comfy spot: their sound offers a pure garage rock sound in the form of melodic pop gems at times reminiscent of The Strokes ("Eviction Party") or Pavement ("Big Girl"). The band will release a new EP ("Warma") via Famous Class Records on March 15. Go check them out live at Shea Stadium on 02.16 – they have a fun live show.
