Four years after their debut EP, »Chasm« (2020), Apulian band Moonoises return with a new album, »She – The Void«.
»She – The Void« is the natural evolution of »Chasm«, of which it broadens the musical horizons.
It’s an eclectic album that ranges from the wave hybridized with the post-rock in »Cold Grey’, to the shores of certain orthodox black metal in »Dead End«; post-punk influences run underground in »Hate Without Form« and »Black Beyond«; »Creepy 31« combines black metal choruses and post-rock influences with dark wave verses, while »Wild Fire« is a quick foray into new wave territories. There are also more reflective and shoegaze moments like »Rope« and »Portrait«. »Mirror« closes the album, being the summary of the Moonoises sound in which all the souls of the project converge.
These Hands Melt will release »She – The Void« on CD and digital on March 8th, 2024. Find preorders at Bandcamp HERE.
