    ABO keep the music tight and enclosed to match the lyrical mood, making Derdang Derdang a succinct, purposeful statement.

    An 11-song set that's melodically insidious and swings like a noose. [Apr 2006, p.90]

    This is probably the most exciting record that Domino will release in 2006, eleven songs of hillbilly hoe-down, gothic atmospherics, scuzzy rock & roll, acerbic post punk noise, and dark sexuality.

    While Derdang Derdang has killer hooks aplenty, they're all too often obscured by stop-start rhythms and the unhinged-sounding vocals of Sam Windett. [Apr 2006, p.119]

    Totally unpretentious, down and dirty weirdness that rocks, surprises and beguiles. Great b/w garage video on their web page.

    This rough and ready British garage-punk band punps out a series of spirited songs on this thier second album. Blasting forth with acerbic guitar led rock 'n' roll and passing on the pop hooks of bands like Franz Ferdinand and The Arcitc Monkeys, their acid tongued lyrics examine the usual ground of the male - female dynamic especially on the vitriolic Gang of Four influenced "Modern Lovers." "Kink" channels the raw energy of it's namesake's early singles with some slashing dave Davies style guitar throuwn in to boot.… Expand
