liking this very much... lets share a stage soon x

1000 plays man haha! Cheers to everyone who's listened, downloaded or shared the tune, really appreciate it!

Reminds me of a local band from a fair few years ago called the Telstar Ponies... good stuff lads.

very good, it melts all kinds of influences that I love. little Door-ish

Or 5000 plays even... that's pretty mad, didn't expect that more than 100 or so people would ever listen to it when we recorded it 2 years ago... Cheers everyone x

REVIEWS:

"This is a monumental chunk of fired-up bluesy rock that has more rumble that a tropical storm" - The Crack Magazine (June 2013)

"Kobadelta’s last single “When It Rains It Pours” received a hearty slap on the back in our last issue and with good reason as it is a supremely confident rocker of a decidedly wired and psyched nature; not foot-to-the-floor stuff, but spinning off fractal guitar riffs which add up to an inner core of really frazzled blues" - The Crack Magazine (July 2013)

"'When It Rains It Pours' is a slab of leather clad, dark haired, cigarette in mouth doom rock filth. The kind of tune that you wouldn't let anywhere near your daughter in case it impregnated her with a sneer and a slow wink." - Listen With Monger (May 2013)

"The synth infused track has hints of surf and alt-rock riffs reminiscent of Muse and Bloc Party. A real gem! Go and download it!" - It's All Indie (TRACK OF THE MONTH - June 2013)

"With 'When It Rains It Pours', a doomed motif is the nucleus of a seamless interaction between clean, pensive guitars and mammoth, bass-driven riffs. It’s extremely well constructed, and bipolarizes glimmers of optimism with downright lugubriousness. From the synths that shimmer from the outset to the hugely impressive bridge, where candidly strong vocals urge over a retrospective, clean guitar, 'When It Rains It Pours' spreads like a fever." - Reviewcaster (June 2013)

"Dark and bluesy, with a healthy chunk of rock, Kobadelta are fast becoming one of the must-see emerging alternative rock bands in the region... The single itself, 'When It Rains It Pours', is a seductive slab of rustic rock 'n' roll held together with rhythmic drums, gritty guitar hooks, kaleidescopic synths and Dom's coarse Northern vocals layered over the top." - NARC. Magazine (July 2013)

"Another of Newcastle’s finest, Kobadelta are a five piece psyche band from the North East and are here to tinge this kaleidoscopic genre with a little more black. They possess the uncanny ability to bring in all the surrealism of a Nick Cave nightmare to a predominantly rock sound, with QOSTA riffs, heavy toms and still manage to sound current and fresh... The synths of Jordan Robson have the ability to cut through the humongous drums with their fading reverb that give the band their escapist sound. With their track When It Rains It Pours they use this synth as an extra textural layer to complete the blues filled, meaty sandwich Marley on bass provides. The Brothers Malliris, with Alex on guitar and Chris on drums, provide the core of the band’s style and produce an authentic rock sound which paints the perfect background for the detailing lyrics." - Far Out Magazine (July 2013)

LYRICS:

We want to drink the water, I'm sick of all the wine,
There was never prohibition in your saviour's time,
I've been working on commission,  in King Solomon's mines,
But who was to tell the snake was wrapped around the vine?

When it rains it pours, it's not the weather I applaud,
You leave me wanting more, not in a way I've ever felt before,
Not in a way I've ever felt before

I sat in the centre of the great, golden round table,
They argued and they plotted like the brothers Cain and Abel,
I have the right to be silent tonight,
But you have the right to be violent, violent tonight

When it rains it pours, it's not the weather I applaud,
You leave me wanting more, not in a way I've ever felt before,
Not in a way I've ever felt before

KOBADELTA - When It Rains It Pours (FREE Download)

Newcastle based five-piece dabbling in dark and brooding psych-tinged rock...
 
"Kobadelta are frantic and feral. This Newcastle-based five-piece have supported the likes of Splashh and Temples, but they're not quite as psychedelic as those bands, instead pushing a far more muscular, gnashing sound. Their second EP, 'Remain Distracted', is out now." - NME
