    Two years of touring has allowed DZ Deathrays to realize their capabilities as songwriters and with Black Rat, it's clear they've got their sights set on bigger and stranger things.

    What you’re left with is near 40 minutes of slow and sweaty seduction executed exquisitely by weeping guitar.

    The overwhelming feeling at the end of Black Rat is that this is a band with a lot more up their sleeve.
