MOSES – Basically

At the end of February, MOSES stepped out of the studio with Gavin Monaghan once more. The results:

Art work by Ana Ban Ana. The 8th collaboration between the two.

Guitar hooks.

Bass hooks.

Vocal hooks.

This is alt-pop music. Except, it isn’t! BBC6 has become too middle aged and Radio X, well, outside of the Gordon Smart and John Kennedy, we have no idea what they’re attempting. They need shaking by the young working classes.

MOSES, for 2 years have sought to bring people together with songs of solidarity and love. For the first time lyrically, they strike out. Taking aim at society’s trolls, they place the target firmly on themselves and, for the want of better words shout:

“come and have a go if you think your hard enough”.

MOSES have hit upon their greatest bass line to date. Funky punk grooves pave the way for frontman, Victor, to sprinkle his unique vocal magic over.

The la la la’s and the yeah yeah yeah’s are begging to howled back at the band on their upcoming headline shows at Lending Room March 28th (Leeds) and ULU April 11th (London).
