Pre-Order THE DARTS “Boomerang” & LARD “Power Of Lard”

Hot on the heels on last year’s groundbreaking album, SNAKE OIL ,The Darts have returned guns blazing with a brand-new album, BOOMERANG!  While on a break from their intense international touring schedule, The Darts stopped at Station House Studio in Los Angeles to work with producer Mark Rains (Hooveriii, Death Valley Girls, Hunx and His Punx), with the mission of capturing the band’s raw rock spirit.

“Boomerang is a reference to the fact that, right after we released Snake Oil, we turned right around and went back into the studio to do a whole new full-length album! I can’t stop writing songs! But “boomerang” also refers to a lyric on the album that describes toxic people and things that keep coming back into your life despite your repeated attempts to fling them as far away as possible. This album is my manifesto about finding strength – the kind of strength it takes to do what you personally need to do to be peaceful and healthy. For me it meant cutting a lot of stuff out of my life, and that was really hard, but it also meant adding a lot of amazing stuff I never thought I’d see. I’m in a better place than I’ve ever been, and I think you can feel that power in this record.” – Nicole Laurenne

The first single from The Darts’ album Boomerang (2024 Alternative TentaclesRecords) may seem, at first glance, like a keg party. But actually singer Nicole Laurenne wrote it while she was giving up alcohol, as a reminder to herself about all the things we tell ourselves as we pour another – and a reminder that sometimes maybe we should listen to our mothers.

It’s coming back in print!!!
