‚Dark Reaction‘ is the wild Spaniards THE SMOGGERS fifth album and their second LP on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS. While the band didn’t lose a bit of their great energy and elaborate songwriting, this record, just like its title already gives away, sounds a little bit darker than its predecessor. The record already starts off with the instant hit ‚Eres Asi‘, which is based on [a=THE MIRACLE WORKERS]‘ song ‚Waiting‘ – a fuzzy garagepunk-dancer, that makes it impossible to sit still while listening. An outstanding tune is the kick-ass-song ‚Tu Maldad‘, which comes forward with a wild Spanish temper. The B-side in contrast to the Spanish A-side has all English lyrics and starts off with the catchy ‚Dark Reaction‘ and together with ‚Who’s Jenny‘ and ‚The Devil On Me‘ reminds one a little of [a=THE FUZZTONES] with its sinister organ and dark garage-sound with a heavy fuzz-guitar. With ‚You Can’t Come Down‘ the band included a fantastic cover-version of [a=CRIMSON SHADOWS]‘ song while adding an extra-portion of SMOGGERS-touch. With ‚Dark Reaction‘ THE SMOGGERS prove once again, that even after five albums they don’t lose their energy and stay wild while they keep refining their sound.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
