Since launching Dirt Farmer, their "pop gem" (Gemma Pike, Triple J) debut single in 2012, Perth 5 piece The Disappointed have picked up national airplay on Triple J, supported Perth's Emperors, Adelaide's Dexter Jones and played shows all over WA. Their Dave Parkin (Emperors, Jebediah) produced debut EP Stranger is due to drop in May 2013 with a WA tour in June and a national tour in July. The EP is a harmony laden blend of jagged new wave, lush pop and alternative rock, a thought provoking humanist ode to life's grey areas. The single Every Made Up Eye In The City is an oddly heart warming call to empathy and a tightly wound bouncy pop gem. Top shelf hooks, accomplished songwriting and an ambitious blend of light and dark run through Stranger from top to toe.
*Stranger out May 24th through Firestarter Distribution* *Touring nationally in July*

Every Made Up Eye In The City
rating:  4/5
I'm loathe to use the word "quirky" because it can have negative connotations, but it IS quirky indie pop. Grows on me the more I listen to it.

Is it just me or does the vocalist sounds like a less-bitter cousin of Andy Falkous?! I dig the little twists and turns. A cute, quirky, pop gem.

A rollercoaster pop journey. The brash vocals and winding melodies sit well with me. I want more.
