Bio
.."The Proud Bastard sons of Mother Mercury".. The MooN is back in the Night Sky!.. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The Spoon Of Music .... Swagger! Attitude! Short sharp stabs of rock that's gone 0-200mph and back again in under 3 minutes! The Moon posses the awesome showmanship and songs that recall The Stooges 'Raw Power' era. The vocals growl, the guitar rips into you and guts you with the searing riffs and the drums pound creating more noise than Hurricane Felix. Oh yeah! Cormac Heron BBC.. Yes but what is it this 'The Moon' band?.... I saw this bunch of freaks by pure accident one night one time and I can't remember seeing a more memorizing performance by unsigned band in London!!! Crack Village might have come close a couple of times but come along anyway. You will be amazed..... The bass player is his pimp and coincidently a vampire who takes his energy by sinking his fangs into 9 Volt PP3 batteries. The guitarist is a Project Manager dealing in the methods of spacetime with the rhythm guitarist and the drummer being two of his commodities in the form of mathematical equations which equal zero and 8 (both to the power of minus one). The whole band are made of liquid nitrogen encased in the translucent gel which made Dr. David Kelly realise that there was no point in him carrying on as a weapons inspector due to the lack of hope for mankind. Dr. Kelly then applied for a job as a spare change distributor with Gala Bingo in Pontefract West Yorkshire, didn't get it and then topped himself accordingly. All of this is true and I can prove it all in a court of law. .... +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++.... ART ROCKER REVIEW Lee Puddefoot.... The Moon 'Dead Eyes' starts like Nirvana's 'Come As You Are', but the singer's moody and dramatic voice and distorted guitar lines makes it far more sinister, like a sedated Cramps..... +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++.... ROCKLANDS BANDSTAND REVIEW by Joe Curran .... Rocklands Bandstand Report .... The Rocklands Bandstand graced Lewisham People..s Day on 8 July, and what a day it turned out to be. With a few weary souls setting up the stage early on, nobody was exactly sure how things were going to turn out. .... Sure enough, first act, The MooN turned up sounding fresh, feisty and provided fistfuls of energy to start the live music extravaganza. Making full use of his radio microphone, lead singer, Joe Moon brought new meaning to the term ..crowd involvement.. by accosting various members of the fast-growing audience. Nobody was safe from the friendly frontman as he showed his enthusiasm for audience participation from the crowd. The MooN filled the stage with their own heavyweight brand of garage rock that blew away a few of the night before..s cobwebs. After playing another raucous secret gig on the Friday evening, Joe Moon even managed a rare moment of clarity as he summed up the Rocklands scene quite eloquently, ..You can have the most tenuous connection to New Cross, as long as you love good music.... +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++.... Aisling a new convert!.... saw u at he Montague Armss!! on friday 18th!!! ur brilllant.. loveddddddddddddddd it!!! wens ur nxt gig?? ".... +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++.... REVIEW!!!! BY QUICK BROWN FOX OF PURPLE TURTLE GIG IN CAMDEN The Moon...high energy rock of the L.A. variety. The singer was incredible! Rolling on the floor, jumping , leaping from bar to stage , singing from an entirely different room! Humping my leg and shoving the mic in my face so I could yell out the 'be your dog' s in their excellent Stooges cover. What fun!.... +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++.... Review Zombie Creeping Flesh Webzine.. ============================== .... Joe Moon sounds a lot like Iggy Pop. He even sings with a Midwestern accent. But his band are not your average garage troupe dishing out "1969" soundalikes..... Perhaps The Moon's music is a speculation on what may have come of the Stooges after the phenomenal 1974 post-glam hangover album they never got to record - picking up the pieces after the big party and entering gloomier times..... As they shoot straight into the heart of darkness while at the same time laughing in its face, The Moon replace The Stooges' decadent Metallic K.O. looseness with an tightly clenched fist, reaching almost militaristic levels with the precise, palm-muted riffing on "Behave". Serpentine lead guitar lines penetrate the dense armour of sound here and there, threading their way along exotic scales akin to the Butthole Surfers circa "Independent Worm Saloon". Levelling their guns in quiet, brooding moments, The Moon conjure up an a new and improved Nick Cave who is a tad less cheesy and has traded his self-assured smugness for a genuine ability to laugh at himself..... Individually, these South London five aren't particularly intimidating. But once they're on stage and launch into their first number, that's when tanks start rolling, stormtroopers start marching, and bombs start raining from the sky. Joe Moon's performance is spontaneous enough to earn him a split skull on occasion, as happened at North London's Rock Action Fest last December. His band, meanwhile, are usually content to stand completely still and whip things up with the force of their sledgehammer-like music alone, thus exercising somewhat of a sinister, Ron Asheton-esque authority over both Joe and the audience..... When you go to see a Moon show, you know that what you're in for; but somehow, they always hit you by surprise..... Ladies and gentlemen... The Moon!.... ===========================================================================.... A review from the streets says,The songs are so strikingly poignant, drawing the colors of flickering black and white...seeping in the grey with all the instruments they have at hand... I find The MooN to be the most exciting, genius-level Rockers happening, today. Can I hear a Shelley-Cheer, here?"
