The Moons - Heart & Soul (Schnitzel Records)
The Moons - Heart & Sou |
Release Date: 31st March 2014
I don't know what I was expecting
from this single from Northampton lads The Moons but it sure as hell isn't what
I got. These guys play rock'n'roll with a real swagger and sense of occasion
that's been missing from British music for some time. 'Heart & Soul' flirts
with the much underrated glam era with a great T-Rex bassline but then layers
on the horns of a Motown hit and the guitars of a sleaze rock band in the vein
of Louis XIV. I could go on about the instrumentation but it's the coolness and
lounge lizard sex appeal that the song is delivered with that really deserves
your attention. Front man Andy Crofts is part Bowie, part Bolan, part Jagger
and way, way more exciting than any other so called rock star knocking around
the UK music scene these days. This is what Russell Brand thinks he sounds
like....but he doesn't.
