I had heard recently (what is now confirmed to be a rumor) that one of my favorite bands, Blackpool Mecca. had split up. Needless to say, I was bummed the boys had hung it up and RIGHT as I was pouring out some whiskey for my long lost rock n rollers, they band proved this not to be true by dropping my favorite song of theirs to date. In typical Blackpool Mecca fashion, “Darts” hits on a whole other level and already 2022 is better for it.
I’ve always loved the way Blackpool Mecca embraces the idea of less is more. In an age of over production and songwriting teams, it’s refreshing to see a band putting out songs that are bigger and better written by just the 3 of them. To say I’m stoked that these boys are in fact still together and out killing it would be an understatement. If anyone needs me I’ll be air drumming all day to this song, but in the meantime do yourself a huge favor and go turn this one up NOW.
