MOONSCAPE // UNARM


Anyone who saw UNARM on last month's West Coast tour should already be jamming these sounds into their ears daily since the gig....but for the rest of you? A distortion drenched assault in three blistering movements with Nanae's vocal power front and center. Just listen to the jerky drum into to the final cut and how it just builds into a steamroller....it's hard to imagine anything coming close to their live intensity, but this recording comes close. Not to be outdone, Tokyo's MOONSCAPE on the flip deliver two mid paced metallic churns, shadows of HELLCHILD, especially with the affected vocals.....it would be hard to match UNARM's fury and speed, so the pairing with a band that relies on dark aural imagery and an undeniable groove works super well. Yes please...just: yes.
