After releasing their new album Performance last Friday, White Denim are now making plans to visit the UK and Ireland in February next year.
The band will open with Irish dates in Belfast and Dublin before heading east for a date at the Bristol Academy. Further shows follow in Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle, Glasgow, Leeds, Liverpool and London.
“Bringing things back down to earth, It Might Get Dark sounds like an off-cut from Exile On Main Street with a mid-section that copies Ocean Colour Scene’s Up On The Downside to a t,” Live4ever’s Performance review reads.
“One can’t imagine these rootin’ tootin’ Texans ever seeking inspiration from the Brummy Mods, but these are strange times we live in. Elsewhere, Petralli lets rip vocally on Backseat Driver, which stands out for its shuffling percussion.
“The album flies past at breakneck speed, never letting up in either tempo or tone. In truth, it could do with one or two slower pieces to provide some breathing space from the freneticism, but that’s a minor quibble. That’s what Sunday mornings are for. This is a Saturday night album.”
