Phobos and Deimos - Dylan Storey EP
Phobos - (panic/fear) Deimos - (terror/dread)
Is Dylan Storey’s new 5 track EP Phobos and Deimos designed to create a feeling of terror and panic in the listener? Not at all - perhaps a mild feeling of unease at best if you’re lucky.
It is the name of the 2 moons of Mars though. Appropriate for a piece of work that has absolutely nothing to do with astronomy either.
It is a collection of 5 songs that could loosely be defined as laid back progressive rock with a dreamy psychedelic mood and an introspective leaning. Recorded in New Zealand and mixed in Texas by McKenzie Smith of Midlake at Midlake’s studio, the songs focus on rich sonic textures and forward-facing retro moods.
Dianne Swann (solo project) and Tibor in support.
