After 2 years of ludicrously intense international touring and songwriting, Dappled Cities prepare for the release of their 3rd album, the art pop opus, Zounds. The work is the highest achievement of a ten year career traced back from their current home on US powerhouse label Dangerbird Records (also home of Silversun Pickups) to the teenagers first playing music together in their Australian childhood suburbs. Under the expert A&R guidance of Justin Meldal-Johnsen (music director and bassist for Beck, Ladytron and Nine Inch Nails) and respected American co-producer Chris Coady (TV on the Radio), Dappled Cities got busy making mayhem and magic. Zounds opening salvo 'Hold Your Back' is the most adventurous track of the band's career - a deep, brooding magnificent bastard anthem which is "barely even a song, more a collection of ideas." It's parting shot is 'Stepshadows', a Derricourt acoustic lament more akin to a n Ennio Morricone spaghetti western soundtrack than a conventional rock song. First single 'The Price' is a political song forged in a disco inferno while 'The Night is Young At Heart', at an epic six minutes, is the band's longest ever track.
