Fans of early 90's rock will appreciate DC to Daylight. Their 6 song EP, Xmas Murder '74, is full of driving guitar hooks, bass and drums, highlighted by Warren Hauff's angst-ridden vocals. "Just a Joke" is a Seattle throwback, mixing The Pixies with Nirvana. "Like a Man" features a Breeders-like bass line.
"Brand New Satellite" could be a Toadies outtake, and "My Way to Hell" veers into Mighty Mighty Bosstones territory, with a ska guitar and drum beat. The EP features some bonuses: videos for "Like a Man" and "My Way to Hell" are here, and the band's humor shows on "Intermission," which is basically a radio or concert intro for the band.
If you're in the mood for a little grunge, or need to rock out for a while, this may be your cup of tea.
