...according to our Phil on Thu 11 Oct, 2007.
The Delta Fiasco are a bunch of scousers I believe making some anthemic commercial indie rock. Shouty and catchy it will either have you singing along like a fat happy goon or crying into hands wondering why. Surprisingly I don't fall into either group, though I don't like this at all. The singer sounds like Marc Almond which is no bad thing. Paperhouse is on 7" and 12" and there's a remix by Ladytron of all people.“THERE IS SOMETHING HAPPENING IN LIVERPOOL, THERE IS A DEFINITE SENSE OF CHANGE IN THE AIR. NO LONGER DOES THE ACOUSTIC GUITAR AND SEA SHANTY RULE, A MORE CURRENT AND ELECTRONIC SOUND IS PREVAILING, ITS EXCITING, REFRESHING AND MORE THAN WELCOME. THE DELTA FIASCO, ARE PURVEYORS OF THIS SCOUSE SONIC SOUND. THEY TAKE ANTHEMIC ROCK TRACKS AND FEED THEM THROUGH A BLENDER UNTIL THEY ARE BLEEDING PURE EXCITEMENT. WHERE MOST BANDS TAKE THEIR MUSIC IN A STRAIGHT LINE THE DELTA FIASCO SHOOT OFF IN INSANE DIRECTIONS, FROM PURE WHITE NOISE TO A TRANCE BEAT, FROM HOLDING YOU IN THEIR ARMS TO SLAPPING YOU IN THE FACE. THEY ARE THE NEW SOUND OF LIVERPOOL AND THEY ARE TAKING THE LIKES OF SHACK, THE LA' AND THE CORAL AND SMACKING THEM ROUND THE HEAD WITH A LAPTOP. IN SHORT THEY ARE BRILLIANT.” GIGWISE MAY 2007
HAVING SPENT THE PAST YEAR BUILDING A MASSIVE LIVE REPUTATION IN THEIR NATIVE LIVERPOOL THE DELTA FIASCO ARE GETTING SET TO BROADEN THEIR HORIZONS ACROSS THE UK WITH THE RELEASE OF THE ANTHEMIC SINGLE COMPLETE WITH A REMIX BY LONGTERM TDF FANS LADYTRON.
AVAILABLE ON LA BASED LABEL SMOKE AND MIRRORS.
