The Dials
'Mondo Space', the new single from Brighton
band The Dials, is a pitch perfect homage to
Syd-era Floyd and comes complete with a fine fan-footage
compiled, psych-inspired video. The tune is
taken from their recent LP, 'The End of the
Pier', which finds them touching a number of
musical bases over the course of its eleven
tracks. The Dials have been around since 2002 and 'The End of the Pier' is their third album. I'm a latecomer, but the quality
of 'Mondo Space' has definitely got me intrigued.

Love the organ sound but definitely Bootleg Barretts. Weird. Likable but do all their songs sound like 'Piper' out-takes?
From what little I've heard, their oeuvre is a 60's inspired pick'n'mix, though, so far, nothing else has jumped out quite as much as this did on first hearing.
This is so Floyd....and love the 'Bootleg Barrents' by SB...which is spot on.
