The Darlingtons – Bats
aaamusic | On 21, May 2012
Bats, a single from the Darlington’s forthcoming debut Decades Dance, is a 4-minute, emotion-packed guitar track. The dark imagery that surfaces plays cohesively with the playful bass-line and pathos-filled guitars and lyrics. This places The Darlingtons’ sound somewhere between The Maccabees and Editors, which is nothing short of exciting. An acoustic version of this track is also available, which heightens the passionate yet contemplative nature of the lyrics and the rainy mood of the song. Overall, Bats is a thrilling taster of a record that we have every reason to be excited about.
