Jack Dalton’s highly anticipated debut “Never mute noise, just turn down the sleep” is finally set to attack your sense of music, by exploring a variety of musical landscapes. The album is truly a mix of many genres and strongly manifested within progressive hardcore with melodic energy. The bands debut is an “instant slowburner” that captures the desperate angst between the restlessness of youth and musical manhood.
The album contains contemporary classics, such as “Manhattan?”, “Camuflage” and “Desperation Prevails” to trackdrop the tip of the iceberg. There are many things that can be claimed, when trying to explain the energy and dynamics of rock groups within the hardcore genre. “Never mute noise, just turn down the sleep” guides you through melodies that keep you tripping through the soundtrack of a band with temporary glimpse of hope. It progresses with tension and release towards a state of mind that many will be able to justify.
By now, you know that this album lies in the mist of many progressive genres. Still, it mirrors the best qualities of rock, hardcore, prog, indie and fuzzpop. As the winner of Norwegian band contest “Zoom 2010″, Jack Dalton is hailed as the best new live act in a mountainous country faaar north. With hints towards early “The Mars Drive-In “…trail of Dead”, “Motorpsycho” “Pavement” and “Mew”, “Never mute noise, just turn down the sleep” is explosive ammunitions going back to the future and beyond.
