Houdini Dax – You Belong to Dax Darling
★★★★☆
This is their debut album - You Belong to Dax Darling, Cardiff trio Houdini Dax channel classic British pop through a modern indie lens, delivering a record bursting with energy, charm, and retro flair. Echoes of The Beatles and Supergrass ring out across fuzzy guitars, catchy hooks, and off-kilter melodies that never take themselves too seriously.
From the vibrant stomp of Robin You Lie to the whimsical bounce of Fizzy Moon, the band mix psychedelic playfulness with sharp songwriting. Their youthful confidence is matched by tight musicianship, making for a debut that feels both nostalgic and fresh.
While a few tracks veer more into mood than memorability, the album’s infectious spirit and creativity carry it through. You Belong to Dax Darling is a fizzing, feel-good ride from one of Wales’ most promising indie outfits.
