DACIOS PRESS KIT

BIO

THE DACIOS are a high-octane, lysergic, nitrous sucking rock n’ roll beast.
Like a reprobate Phoenix exploding from the ashes of legendary Tasmanian
band Little Ugly Girls, THE DACIOS first erupted on local stages in 2005.
Their first dangerously flammable line-up boasted Linda J (Little Ugly Girls)
on larynx/guitar; Bean (Little Ugly Girls, Keith’s Yard) on guitar/back-ups; and
Pops on traps.
Permanently stimulated by a synapse twisting brew of rock n’ roll sour mash,
THE DACIOS are esteemed for their white-heat live performances (now
featuring Gus – Brian Hooper Band – on drums). They’ve recently revved up
rooms for Eddy Current Suppression Ring (album launch); Deniz Tek’s Visitors;
Legends of Motorsport; Ninety Nine; The Stabs; and Witch Hats. They also
helped RRR celebrate its 30th birthday bash in typically debauched style.
But there’s more to THE DACIOS than just the brain pulverising roar of a
supercharged V12 running full throttle through a nuclear junkyard. Linda J’s
lyrical concoctions constitute a highly virulent poetic serum which she
expectorates in heaving torrents against the increasingly claustrophobic forces
of urban banality. Her unflinching psychic insights wrench the cancerous lesions
of modern life into the glare and splay love’s ordeals on a dissection table like so
many toads, their entrails pullulating with rheumy ooze.
So, if you’re impatient to slake yourself with this incendiary distillation,
visit www.myspace.com/thedacios and get banjaxed.
THE DACIOS first bottled batch - ‘Monkey’s Blood’ - will be available soon via
Tom Lyngcoln's cochlear speakeasy, Solar/Sonar (distributed by Shock).
