The following reviews are for 'Dumbstruck', the current Dacoits EP which was produced in-house with the kindly assistance of Mr Chris Sheldon (Foo Fighters/Oceansize/Idlewild/Pixies). We are now in the process of mixing our debut album, keep an eye on the updates for more news...
"an exciting return to the days when indie was genuinely alternative. The Dacoits might just be the band who can rescue indie rock from the Coldplay clones..."
OXFORDBANDS.COM
“The Dacoits have brought us some serious magic here in the form of 5 tracks of PJ Harvey inspired garage rock. The songwriting is fantastic ....the best record I have been sent to date.”
THE OCELOT
The Dacoits could well be on their way to robbing the title of the band to watch over the next few months"
OXFORDSHIRE MUSIC SCENE
“This is an album of raw emotion, subjects that reside in the heart rather than the head, and delivered in a way that makes you believe that every angst ridden sentence is pulled from real life.”
FREQUENCY MAGAZINE
“When Benjamin Britten spoke of music having “the beauty of loneliness and of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never satisfied love”, I’d like to think he had listened to The Dacoit’s recent release”…. for Dumbstruck is all this and more….”
Dave Franklin (www.mmamalbums.blogspot.co.uk)
"husky darkminded garage pop.... stadium sized grunge-pop fame and fortune is within reach."
