Atlantic Province Domination continues with this recording from Halifax quintet MOON. Subdued psych oozes through the gaps in their casually cool layers of bedroom indie sounds, three guitars and an organ sharing the spotlight with an array of multi gendered vocals that run the gamut between EDDY CURRENT and VASELINES. After opening with the innocence of "Stained Glass," "Card Crane Ha" conjures STEREOLAB, "Dented In The Bag" is a perfect guitar driven pop song (kudos on the blatant SMITHS rip - no criticism, just an observation), and "Bliss" closes like a damaged NEU! by way of PTARMIGAN....and it's all great. Only four cuts, and this cassette is now almost seven years old, but MOON have been active in the years since - and they've spent that time honing their craft and focusing their vision. Recommended listening for foggy environments.
