DROPPING DAYLIGHT - BRACE YOURSELF (2006)


Here's a perfectly odd and disturbing cover featuring crash test dummy midwifery. I have no idea what the seat belt is being used for and I'm not sure there is really a need for latex gloves? Happily this is exactly the type of cover befitting of this project.

Onto the music. The album title Brace Yourself seems to be offering some quite explosive but in reality Dropping Daylight simply crank out some fairly decent rock tracks. There are no surprises, it is really just a standard MTV rock sound. There is a welcome change of pace and tone with Answering Our Prayers but overall everything sounds good but slightly unremarkable.

Best Track: Apologies, Blame Me, Answering Our Prayers.

Verdict: Fail - just a little too safe.
