v520 - The Darts - "Boomerang"
The Darts can’t stop, won’t stop! Hot on the heels on last year’s groundbreaking album, SNAKE OIL ,The Darts have returned guns blazing with a brand-new album, BOOMERANG! While on a break from their intense international touring schedule, The Darts stopped at Station House Studio in Los Angeles to work with producer Mark Rains (Hooveriii, Death Valley Girls, Hunx and His Punx), with the mission of capturing the band's raw rock spirit.
From the opening chords of “Hang Around,” listeners are launched into an explosive garage party, with the Farfisa organ bringing a carnival and snarky gang vocals adding to the fray. The band doesn’t let up from there. With Nicole Laurenne on vocals and Farfisa, Christina Nunez on bass and backup vocals, Meliza Jackson on guitars, and Mary Rose Gonzales on drums, the tight lineup fuels the album’s themes of resilience and empowerment.. Each track on BOOMERANG packs a punch, drawing the listener into a world of infectious hooks and soaring riffs.
"Boomerang is a reference to the fact that, right after we released Snake Oil, we turned right around and went back into the studio to do a whole new full-length album! I can't stop writing songs! But "boomerang" also refers to a lyric on the album that describes toxic people and things that keep coming back into your life despite your repeated attempts to fling them as far away as possible. This album is my manifesto about finding strength - the kind of strength it takes to do what you personally need to do to be peaceful and healthy. For me it meant cutting a lot of stuff out of my life, and that was really hard, but it also meant adding a lot of amazing stuff I never thought I'd see. I'm in a better place than I've ever been, and I think you can feel that power in this record." - Nicole Laurenne
With the release of BOOMERANG, The Darts solidify their status as one of the best garage bands in the world. Fierce, unapologetic, and utterly captivating, this album is a testament to the band's unwavering passion and undeniable talent. Strap in and get ready for a wild ride with The Darts and BOOMERANG, coming soon to a cave party near you!
