Dark Storm by The Jezabels
Dark Storm is an EP by The Jezabels, released in 2010. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 1 countdown appearance in total. The biggest is “Mace Spray”, on 1 list with a best position of #16.
Dark Storm, the Jezabels' third EP, came out independently on 1 October 2010 and debuted at number 40 on the ARIA Charts, a big step for a Sydney band that hadn't yet made an album. Lachlan Mitchell produced and engineered it, and the sound is stormy, romantic and huge: Hayley Mary's soaring voice riding over Heather Shannon's piano and keyboards, Sam Lockwood's shimmering guitar and Nik Kaloper's rolling drums.
"Mace Spray" is the one that broke through, a brooding, galloping anthem that made Triple J listeners sit up. The next year the EP won Best Independent Single/EP at the AIR Awards, where the band also took Best Independent Artist, and it capped a run of three EPs, following She's So Hard. Prisoner, their first full album, came next.
