(Damn) This Desert Air creates big, booming, melodic rock, wide in it's breadth, sound and scope. Injecting heavy space riffs into a foundation of angular, modern-rock song structures—(Damn) This Desert Air are finding an audience who not only desire a thick, full blast of sound but also attention to dynamic detail in their music. Creating memorable songs with a few left turns are what make (D)TDA’s debut EP 1 stand firmly on it’s feet.
“Perhaps this is what 90’s alternative rock would have sounded like had it not been tailor-made for radio play—all the elements are there in the music of (D)TDA for mainstream acceptance, but the music is a bit more adventurous, technical and harder than the standard fare.” -Verbicide Magazine, issue 22
Though members have resigned from notable bands such as Instruction (Geffen); Nora (Trustkill); Elemae (Engineer); Merciana (Engineer) and Ex Number Five (OneDaySavior), they’ve been purposely self-managing themselves since the bands inception, giving them a realistic approach at building the band on their terms, at a manageable pace in today’s fickle musical climate.
Receiving broadcasts in a handful of taste-making music news sites (thePRP.com, PunkNews.org, Mammoth Press, Rock Sound, Rock Midgets, Punkbands.com, StonerRock.com), (Damn) This Desert Air received a second, honorable feature in the UK’s Rock Sound magazine as one of the “101 Bands That Will Own 2008” (Issue 104). Additionally, Wonka Vision Magazine conducted an interview in Issue 41, as well as Alternative Press Magazine features a Q&A in Issue 241.
In further release news, Koi Records of Houston, TX picked up (Damn) This Desert Air to do a limited edition split vinyl “single” alongside North Carolina’s Telescreen (ex-Classic Case, Codeseven). With a May 2008 release date in the works, this split will also be partnered by England’s Different Kitchen Records to be released simultaneously in Europe.
Additionally, (Damn) This Desert Air was one of the final bands added to a tribute compilation for the 90’s space rock band Failure, out on Pop Up Records later in 2008. Entitled “The Nurse Who Loved Me, A Tribute to Failure,” the song “Sergeant Politeness” from Failure’s seminal Fantastic Planet album was selected and will be included amongst a strong roster or artists. You can go to the tribute site for additional information.
