Review: Moth Face - Self-Titled
This one's been out
for a while. I hope it doesn't look like I'm reviewing it now because
of all the damn moth memes on social media! Because this really is a
fuckin' great album. The dudes know their doom and they know their
hard rock, and they know how pump fuckin' energy into it. What I mean
is there is more than just sluggish riffage and lazy haze. There are
real actual SONGS happening. They understand that playing slow isn't
enough. Opener "Tell Them That I'm Not Home" is about as
perfect of a start as one could imagine. And a perfect illustration
of my point. The song starts metally but gets catchy and kinda deep,
then wraps in way that reminds me of the softer moments from
Sabbath's Paranoid album. Kinda hate that I've mentioned Sabbath,
because honestly what I love is how this is a real modern band that
isn't some by-the-numbers throw-back. Investigate for yourself.
