Review:
Coming off the good sophomore album, Only
In Dreams (Coming Down
was one of my favorite
songs of 2011), the Dum Dum Girls quartet is back with a new EP End of
Daze. It features three songs originally done for Only In Dreams (to be used as
B-sides) and two new songs.
The EP has a very atmospheric
sound, having an ethereal feeling but still mixed with the band’s darker tone.
It has a much more dream-pop quality to it than their more indie/garage rock
sounding output. However, they are working again with producers Sune Rose
Wagner and Richard Gottehrer (who they have great chemistry with), and thus
will be familiar to returning fans.
The Dum Dum Girls seem to strive
in short form, as like their last EP (He
Gets Me High) End of Daze is their best work to date. 4/5

Thank you for such an honest and to-the-point review. I have been craving for good music for good 2,3 days. Will definitely give these songs a listen.
