LISTEN: Dilly Dally – Desire

Fuzzy, snarling track from Toronto quartet in advance of new LP

Finely-named Toronto grungemongers Dilly Dally have emerged with the first single from their debut LP. Sore. ‘Desire’ is sleeker, catchier, but no less confrontational than past releases, building itself around a gorgeous, lazy riff and drifting more towards the Siamese Dream side of fuzz. The track’s enthralling left-turn, as ever, comes from Katie Monks’ cathartic snarl.

Sore is released through Partisan Records and Buzz Records on October 9. Listen to ‘Desire’ above and keep an eye on Dilly Dally’s Bandcamp page for more releases in advance of the LP.
