Sadness And Complete Disappointment
Fun EP – Self released
At its heart music needs to connect. It might hug you in times of sorrow, kick you into action when you want to just give up or simply make you want to dance, but it is nothing without engagement and reaction. Sadness And Complete Disappointment have created an EP full of those magical connecting ingredients. In four songs we get big hooks, stunning near ethereal vocals, grunge soaked grooves and lyrics sharper than a surgeon’s scalpel. The mix of lullaby harmonics and edgy riffs work well giving the band immediate identity. The impressive song writing sits mid-tempo, with sombre moments giving way to soaring into bursts of energy. Fans of Sonic Youth will love the arrangements and structure of the music. When the lockdown ends and gigs can resume again unrestricted Sadness And Complete Disappointment will be in high demand based on this cracking debut.
