The Dum Dum Girls’ 2011 Sub Pop release “Only in Dreams” was a stunner. They took their fuzzy noise pop sound and gave it a little polish (as they describe it: “blissed out buzzsaw”) that made it ultimately more enjoyable.

Dee Dee’s vocals are always the heart and soul of every song and that never changed. In fact, I believe it was a better display for both her words and her singing. (Check out a clip from their MBE performance right here).

Now the SoCal-based girl band has put out the “End of Daze” EP, which continues in that direction, including the very excellent “Lord Knows”. For fans of Portishead and Mazzy Star…

The EP is out officially tomorrow and they have two local appearances to celebrate –an Origami Records in-store on Tuesday and a show at Los Globos on Thursday, September 27. Details
