Review from Harmonica Riff Raff. I can't be sure that I truly exist There's no one to communicate with Maybe I died walking off a cliff And when I got to hell I forgot about it? Somethings gone wrong Hell - New Delica Thanks to Peej from Community Radio 3MDR, I became acquainted with talented local singer/songwriter New Delica (aka Pat Coyle). His moniker originates from his old 4 by 4 Mitsubishi Van with which he previously toured the East Coast. Appearing on Peej’s high rating Brekky show to promote his latest album ‘Taken By The Storm’, Pat performed a few of his tunes acoustically. And immediately we were gob smacked with his vocal. Nothing went wrong in the production of ‘Taken By The Storm’s’ creative artistry. For only a young man his lyrical expertise, sense of melody and song structure is something to behold. The opener, the title track is a fine ensemble of electrical acoustica. It had both Peej and myself toe tapping. Although neither of us dance, Peej informed his dedicated listeners that toe tapping is a recognised form of dance. Pat creatively applies the ten hole tin can to several tracks enhancing the feel and mood on each of the tunes. Taken By The Storm, I Saw The Dogs and Hell all feature the St. Louis Trumpet. The slow marching beat of Hell includes haunting cross harp and emotive repetitive vocal. I Saw The Dogs breaks from its timidness with wailing harp and a positivity for fighting for the sheep. A couple without that demand a plug - Firstly, the single release from the album Don’t Take Me Now. A slow shuffle with gospel overtones has exquisite female backing vocal and MOZË (Zoe Marshall) even takes the lead with spine tingling intensity - I believe! The other track of note is Take In The View (“Why do things like this keep happening to me?”) the instrumentation and building vocal emphasises the personal struggle. The album was mixed and mastered in Pat’s three room home studio (Prospect Studio). Pat had studied audio engineering, but didn’t step on the podium for graduation. It did, however ignite the kindling for home brewing and it certainly didn’t affect the quality here. This is an album you must spin for your aural pleasure. Out now on Bandcamp. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Review from Harmonica Riff Raff.
I can't be sure that I truly exist
There's no one to communicate with
Maybe I died walking off a cliff
And when I got to hell I forgot about it?
Somethings gone wrong
Hell - New Delica
