I've been listening to Daphne Loves Derby for a while. Their earlier works (which can be found on purevolume) are almost completely acoustic. Simple yet elegant. This EP shows the band turning everything up a notch - from going electric to improving their sound as a band. The EP starts off with "We Bet the Willing." This is a nice intro track into "Closing Down the Pattern Department." I must say that "Closing Down..." sums up the growth in DLD. The lyrics are fantastic and all the musical elements have improved. I could easily imagine hearing this song on the radio. The EP continues onward with "Come Winter." This is a new version of the song (I think it was actually written a few years ago). The original is completely acoustic with much simpler guitar riffs. The new version switched to electric guitars and also added an instrumental. This song shows so much musicality. I especially love the instrumental. It really adds a lot to an already fantastic song. Next comes "Deserts Eating Oceans." This is one of those 'epic' songs: the kind where it starts out softly and then kicks it up a notch. The lyrics on this track are awesome. The final track is "These Ghosts, My Hopes, The Sand, The Sea." This is a great choice for a last track. It is more subdued than the other tracks, but just as good. Again, this song is really lyrically sound. The instrumental thing at the end is also really cool. I hope everyone will go out and buy this EP. Daphne Loves Derby is a great band and they deserve all the support they get.
