Release Date: Out Now
For this, the 2000th
article posted on Listen With Monger, I wanted to bring you something special,
something utterly new and on the cusp of great things. Fortuitously, the debut
release from the Moonlight Crusade fell in to my lap/inbox and my search was
over. There couldn’t be a more instant beginning to a song than that which
opens ‘No Denying’ and lesser bands would have tested the water with a wall of
feedback first but this trio is straight in to the action. A relentless, malevolent
beat punctures the squall of guitars before delay drenched vocals rise up
desperately from the mire to call you in to shore. The Moonlight Crusade are
rising from the smouldering ashes of North-East heroes Bernaccia as brothers
Jonny and Dom Noble carry a torch for the dramatic and psychedelic side of
music but it’s where they carry that torch that is really interesting –
notably, in to crypts, dark alley ways and grave yards full of metaphorical and
real skeletons. 2000 pieces published and still there are bands lurking in the
shadows all around the world making music that makes the hairs stand up on your
neck and dry your mouth out with anticipation. Here’s to the next 2000.
