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.
