DAN SPENCER

ARTIST DISCOVERED
Dan Spencer appeared on my radar regarding an Instagram post from Militarie Gun singer and mastermind Ian Shelton. I like to follow artists‘ personal accounts as long as they let me so I can get some ideas for music, suggestions, and collections from them. Dan Spencer is now on my map. Thanks, Ian.

KILLER SONG MOMENTS
Ultimate highlight on this record is for sure the song Fat Vampire. The explosive start and the ear catching melodies are one of a kind. The tracks on Return To Your Dark Master combine in all very dark, depressive and broken lyrics with a catchy, sappy and sentimental music. So everything sometimes appears with a touch of black humour.

FAVORITE LYRIC LINE
Let’s lose ourself in the day dream / Let’s remember it’s easy to forget / How you are versus how you seem / Shed these life stained silhouettes – from Fat Vampire

CHARACTERISTICS THAT APPLY
catchy | sad | dark | alt-country | vampiric

BESIDES THAT
Dan Spencer released some new singles since the record release in 2024. Give it a listen.

WISH
Can’t wait for a physical release and maybe someday Spencer will make his way to Europe.
