NewDad - Banshee EP

Fair Youth

2021's 'Waves' EP found itself nicely poised on my top 25 EP's of said year. A well deserved award if there ever was one. NewDad return yet again to provide another astonishing offering in the shape of the 'Banshee' EP. Tunes rich in quality and thick with lavish instrumentation make the Galway based band contenders for the most promising act around at this moment in time. Their future bears fruit of the sweetest kind.

NewDad's etherealities find themselves pushed through the shimmery assets of reverb-laden dream states. Converging on a stream of psychedelic symmetry, NewDad offer a plateau of tranquil action.

NewDad pull on the same strings as bands such as The Cure - moody, melancholic jams strapped to earth by thick, heavy basslines. Any less lyrically malaised and they would take off, with the potential never to return. Lovely lushness portrayed through poignant pop sophistication renders visions of laid back cloud trips. Feet up, mind collapsed back, eyes on the above, spirits to the sky - the soul is stretched to magnificence.

A full-length project from these guys offers to be something truly special. Hoping to catch these guys in the live setting at some stage soon!
