A crushing fist of organ drenched, fuzzed up German schlager.
"One of Sweden's best kept secrets are coming back with their second release which follows their debut EP, Perfection. Our initial reaction is that the group is much stronger now. /../ No Conversation is a great tune, which actually sounds very reminiscent of one of the better UK groups of the 90's, The Clique. /../ Beatfever Boogaloo is a fuzz-laden update on what could have easily been a lost studio creation between Steve Marriott and Brian Auger. That's no small compliment, but completely deserved in this case. /../ Friends, keep your eyes and ears on this band!" Brian Poust, www.uppers.org
"The big stars of the night were The Moving Sounds from Stockholm. With hand clapping and the right poses, they really made Pipeline swing. During the song The Sky the whole dance floor looked like spastic Mick Jagger imitations." Review in Swedish newspaper Dagbladet, Sundsvall
"when the organ/guitar attack starts, the crowd breaks out into unrestrained dancing. An exciting set of garage, soul and rnr. With a feeling not seen in years they skilfully mix own songs with new interpretations of non-destroyed covers. A triumph!" LIVE POINT- Spettacoli a VERONA, www.livepoint.it
"The five headed band from Stockholm seems to be an absolute must to see" mod-scene.de, www.mod-scene.de
"this ep is great with a distinctive american hammond fuelled fuzzed up garage-pop sound. All 4 tracks are winners. /../ buy this record and we will do our best to bring them over to these shores for a show in 2002." The New Untouchables, www.newuntouchables.com
"This EP, the first recorded effort by Swedish beat combo The Moving Sounds, features four finely crafted snapshots of mod groove, centred around the feisty organ pyrotechnics of Fredrik Forsman. /../ their undeniable musical ability and songwriting talent shows a lot of promise." Jesper Kern, www.uppers.org
"Dressed up in sharp suits these 5 young lads bash out some groovy organ drenched Mod Freakbeat, which will make your hips swing!" Soundflat, www.soundflat.de
"Killer new 4-track Big Boss Hammond blast from this smartly dressed Swedish quintet" Detour Records, www.detour-records.co.uk
"Incl. "Beatfever Boogaloo", a great groovy Instrumental dance killer!!"
"Cool Swedish Mod freakbeat con organo. /../ Groovy!" Butterfly Records, www.butterfly-records.com
"When I think of Mod I think of this band. They have the definitive Mod sound a perfect blend of classic and new." Another Face in the Crowd, www.another-face.com
The Moving Sounds has been going on for seven years now. The band is known for being a blizzard of hammond fueled fuzz-o-rama on stage. Although there's no outspoken goal for the band, they seem to want to pay their hommage to their musical heros whoever they might be from Booker T to Lord Sitar to The Velvet Underground.
