Nottingham psych-pop sextet Midnight Rodeo try to shut out the horrors that fucked up their personal lifes on their new album Chaos Era, making a case for escapist jangling songs that are actually quite smart musically. By inserting a bit of Krautrock, 90s grunge guitar and even a bit of disco, they have updated the 60s moods and grooves that are their go-to reference points.
Take a seat at the Captain's Table, Growl at detractors and show some support for Daisy, who is not taken seriously in a mysogynistic environment. Chaos Era is an album that invokes the urge to go swirling on the dance floor, being transported to alternate reality, a place where the normal rules don't apply.
