U.K. Indie Band to Watch: MOSES

mosesthebandLast spring, the exciting London indie rock band MOSES released their debut album, Almost Everything is Bullshit. Unfortunately, the pandemic lockdown hit at just the wrong time in as far as doing shows to support the drop. But the band members didn’t let that stop them from getting it out and spreading it around.

In fact, the album was preceded by a series of singles that made the rounds on the blogs and that the band did get to perform live. So they were fortunate in that respect. Fast forward to 2021, the band is hoping to hit the road this August and September.

Now they’ve returned with a new booming new single, “Move On” (At the moment, the track is only available via Spotify ). The song overflows with powerful chords and percussions backed by soaring vocals.

MOSES says about the new single: “When you are being dumped, just move on. When someone is quitting on you, move on. When someone is telling you that it’s over and they say sorry just tell them “why are you sorry? I got no worries. I still believe, I still believe in me-and move on.”

The track, and the approach to the recording, make us think a bit of Phil Spector’s ‘wall of sound’ approach to producing – just put all the instruments and effects in that you possibly can so that the listener is saturated with sound reaching a point of auditory orgasm. The band knows how to evoke feelings through songs; that is a gift as much as it is a talent.



MOSES’ Break-Through Single, “Cause You Got Me”

We thought we should include the music video that really got things rolling for MOSES – the impossibly good “Cause You Got Me.” Some of you may recognize the track from the Tomb Raider soundtrack. Also, check out the track “Findings” below.
