Out now via V2, Moonstruck Man draws on the spirit of '70s hard rock, classic heavy metal, garage punk, desert rock and psychedelia, the album is packed with driving rhythms, fuzz-drenched guitars, soaring vocals and the kind of raw, unrestrained energy that has defined the band throughout their career.
The album singles release to date include the title track which is a gloriously rambling slice of '70s-inspired rock, loaded with wailing wah, scorching guitars, high-register vocals and flashes of prog and glam-rock eccentricity. 'Run From The Sun' takes things into heavier, more hypnotic territory, combining bluesy basslines and killer fuzz riffs with the expansive, dreamy atmosphere of desert rock. Meanwhile, 'Glide Like A Ghost' brings a high-energy collision of classic heavy metal, psychedelic rock and modern stoner rock, driven by raw, heavy guitars, swaggering desert-rock riffs, punchy garage-punk attitude and sharp, witty storytelling.
