Darker My Love are sitting atop of my "best new bands from Los Angeles" list. These four dudes just finished their new record and wow, it’s really fucking good! I hear some of The Jesus & Mary Chain, The Velvet Underground, Spacemen 3  and even a bit of The Stooges in these jams. But don’t get me wrong, these cats got their own sound going on and it’s loaded with shakers, tambourines, loud fuzzy guitars and droning vocals… all the necessary rock shit. This song "Helium Heels" is my favorite number, I especially like the breakdown with the solo in the middle. For some reason that part makes me feel all warm inside. Go see this band live and tell em Buddyhead sent you:
