Deap Vally - Gonnawanna
A multicoloured spew of hyperactive, unstoppable, delicious noise.

Spare a thought for any fool that tries to halt Deap Vally’s rumbling rock-jeep as it thrashes through the undergrowth, and speeds straight towards a rough-sanded beach right at home next to choppy, shark-infested waters. “I’m on a psychic safari, and I’m not sorry” spits a defiant Lindsey Troy, thrashy, spun-out riffs getting lost - and remerging again just as brashly – from Julie Edwards’ thunderous, spare rhythmic powerhouse. ‘Gonnawanna’ isn’t just loud; it’s terrifying. Just try and stop it. It’s impossible.
Solo chops constantly trade blows with squalling, feedback laced shots of guitar on ‘Gonnawanna’, necking giant tequila shots filled to the brim with the wide-beamed, chaos-prompting influence of both Def Leppard and Black Sabbath. Honing their concentrated essence, Deap Vally’s second record ‘Femejism’ is fast shaping up into a multicoloured spew of hyperactive, unstoppable, delicious noise. You’re ‘Gonnawanna’ warn the neighbours before cranking up the volume on this absolutely monstrous beast of a track.
Deap Vally’s new album ‘Femejism’ is out on 16th September via Cooking Vinyl.
