DARK BELLS

Teneil Throssell and Ash Moss were two Sydney residents well versed in the music game when they chose to relocate to London and do the thing properly. There they met drummer Luke Richardson, and Dark Bells truly came to life. Debut release Want sees powerful bass and resolutely solid drums plug away beneath sheets of guitar reverb and female vocals which alternate between insistent declarations and dreamy, wistful sighs. The track suddenly plunges into a hugely evocative, dusty and atmospheric scape, lulling gently before the structure rushes back from the haze. This, alongside deeply promising live footage, suggests a trio happy to experiment with hypnotic psych traits, content in the knowledge of their songwriting chops.
