With their catchy and tasteful 'later era Poison Idea covering a metalpunk song' style of hardcore, Dart was turning heads around the world with their excellent 2022 demo. High-octane riffs and stumbling rock'and'roll swagger, nothing but hits.
And like most great bands, Dart takes a few steps forward with their vinyl debut, adding a couple drops of Motorhead to the sound and leaning into their heavy metal aesthetic to bring their style to new heights. Blazing guitar solos, wild and expressive vocals, and Samppa's drumming has never sounded better. The organs in "Sick Game", the epic melodic bridge in "Blood", Dart has crafted a MONSTER album for barreling down the highway or smashing beer cans against your fuckin head. Pure fuckin adrenaline and attitude.
