The Darts - Boomerang

The Darts can’t stop, won’t stop! Hot on the heels of their groundbreaking 2023 album Snake Oil, the band returns guns blazing with their brand-new full-length effort, Boomerang. Recorded at Station House Studio in Los Angeles with producer Mark Rains (Hooveriii, Death Valley Girls), the album was born from a mission to capture the band’s "raw, high-energy essence" during a rare break from their intense international touring schedule. It is a "major triumph" of resilience—a record that "flings away" toxic influences to make room for newfound strength and peace.

From the opening chords of “Hang Around,” listeners are launched into a "snarky and infectious" garage party, fueled by the signature swirl of the Farfisa organ and soaring riffs. The tight lineup of Nicole Laurenne, Christina Nunez, Meliza Jackson, and Mary Rose Gonzales delivers a sound that is both "viscerally abrasive and strangely beautiful." As Laurenne explains, Boomerang is a personal manifesto about "finding the power to be healthy," resulting in an album that feels more "urgent and realized" than anything they’ve done before. This Limited Orange & Black Starburst pressing is the definitive way to experience the "physical weight and sonic fire" of a band at the height of their powers.
