Like so many Aussies, I was really disappointed to see Hungry Kids of Hungary go their separate ways. Generally when these things happen you expect the lead singer to launch the first high-profile solo project, but the band’s bassist Ben Dalton has actually gotten in first. The Brisbane musician has just launched his solo project, Born Joy Dead, and his debut single “Upside Down, Inside Out.”
The quirky bassline is sure to delight Hungry Kids of Hungary fans. But beyond that, the song’s got such a great new wave feel to it. If this is a sign of things to come, Ben Dalton’s destined for solo success.
