Two years have passed since The Dealers published their first record, a 45 with two mighty compositions where sharp r&b took British psychedelia into the dance floor.
Back then, some of us felt shivers down the spine with those two hypnotic songs and couldn’t stop thinking about their in-progress-forthcoming lp, which promised to be a masterpiece… 24 months have passed and we’re still waiting in despair but in order to make our waiting easier, The Dealers are giving us an aperitif and swear to Almighty Pretty Things they’ ll release that wonder long play late this 2014.

En esta nueva rodaja, The Dealers patean cualquier expectativa onírica con una cara A demoledora de puritito garage con excitante aroma latino. Rompepistas de boite, bailes a go-go, luces estroboscópicas palpitando, sudor y camisas de paramecios ¿los Yaki? ¿los Ovnis? No, The Dealers! 

Y con el reverso agárrense los machos, no solo demuestran un gusto exquisito al recuperar una joya beat de uno de los más sublimes grupos de pop de la historia, hablamos de los Zombies por supuesto, sino que además la engrandecen acentuando el reverso violento de la misma en una coda que sirve de intrigante puerta abierta a….
