BLESSED IS THE BOOGIE CD
the third album by Western Australian rockers Datura4
Fronted by Aussie legend Dom Mariani, who came to prominence
on the music scene in the 1980s with legendary garage rock
combo The Stems, and later went on to form revered power pop
outfits DM3 and The Someloves, Datura4 is Mariani’s return
to his blues and heads-down, full-tilt boogie roots.
“Blessed is the Boogie” is ten new songs that build on
Datura4’s ‘guitars to infinity’ approach of “Hairy Mountain”
(2016) and the hard rocking, progressive blues and
psychedelic stylings of debut LP “Demon Blues” (2015). Both
albums were released through Alive NaturalSound Records and
gained critical acclaim at home, in Europe and the USA.
Garagey but not grungey, power-poppy but not cheesy, muddy
but not sludgy, blues-respecting but not formulaic, trippy
but not spacey, Datura4 is carving out their own niche and
clearly incorporate their many influences but, refreshingly,
keep them as just that – influences which contribute to the
greater Datura4 sound.
GET READY TO ROCK ( 4 star review)
It’s like the 1970s grew up, started shaving and finally got some
action. Welcome to Riff City, kid. – I-94 BAR
This band reignites the rock-blues vibe that summons long-
haired rock-rolling Lazarus back from the grave. – SOUNDBLAB
(10/10 review)
Datura4 are lead by Fremantle native Dom Mariani, who’s been
a linchpin of Aussie underground rock for the past 40 years
with bands like The Go-Starts, The Stems, The Someloves, DM3
and The DomNicks (with former Cortinas and Clash guitarist
Nick Shepard). Usually to be found trading in Beatley
powerpop and Nuggets-era psych, with Datura4 Dom and his
colleagues Stu Loasby, Warren Hall and Bob Patient scratch
their heavy blues-rock and footstomping boogie itch.
VIVE LE ROCK
HAIRY MOUNTAIN CLASSIC BLACK VINYL LP
the second album from Australia’s Datura4
Building upon the "guitars-to -infinity" approach of
Datura4's acclaimed debut LP Demon Blues, Hairy Mountain
VINYL is 8 solid tracks celebrating an unbridled joy for
rock nroll ,with a nod to the spiritual presence of their
hairy Oz Rock forefathers.
Throwback in the best possible way, the way you can go to
some underground club in your nearest big city and see
kick-ass rockers throwing it down like it was 1972. But
unlike those amateurs, Datura4 is the real deal. In
Mariani and his band it has the pedigree. UNDER THE RADAR
Elements of hard-lined blues remain evident, but are
primarily smoothed out by a dominant, free-formed 70s
psych sparsity. Those sprawling soundscapes themselves
threaten explosive outbreaks yet are reigned in further
with a defining boogie, a heavy footstomp of swagger that
sets a more contemporary course.
