Premiere: Colour Dazed's New Single, 'Dana Salt'

Post-punk is the best punk.

Post-punk is the best punk.


With a name like Colour Dazed, is it no surprise that this Windsor trio plays a dreamy, washey haze of rock? No, probably not.

Expectations aside, though, that doesn't make their lush new single, 'Dana Salt', a bad trip by any means! It's actually really quite good, hence why we're very excited to be premiering the new single and its music video, shot by our good pal Jordan Tan, today!'

'Dana Salt' is the opening track and debut single culled from their new EP - 'Conduit' - which dropped back at the very start of January. Now, that release was produced, mixed, and mastered by Aaron Dobos over at Sing Sing studios in Melbourne and that we feel that move has really helped band's brand of "rock and or roll" shines through all the stronger under such authentic sonic frameworks.

Both 'Dana Salt' and the remainder of Colour Dazed's new five-track EP shows off some very strong influences from bands like The Smashing Pumpkins, Mineral and even fellow Australian acts like Perth's Postblue and FOAM. So, if melancholic 90's influenced rock merged with some elements of reverberant psychedelia and modern post-punk is your thing, then check out Colour Dazed below!

You shan't be disappointed.
