Label: Lucky Number
Released: 3rd March 2023
With their second EP, Dork Hype List stars Priestgate are setting down yet another marker for why they might just be one of the best new hopes for the UK’s vibrant alternative scene.
While their first collection was impressive, ‘One Shade Darker’ does what it says on the label. With a brooding doomy hue beneath the surface, opening track ‘Some Things Never Change’ feels like classic indie writ large, while ‘Into The Blue’ shimmers with a hint of the iconic.
Seriously, seriously impressive stuff.
