The Soft Moon's cryptic post punk has recently landed on my radar after glowing reviews from pitchfork. Reminiscent of bands like Joy Division and Bauhaus, Luis Vasquez incorporates retro analog and drum machine effects with echoed and layered vocals to refresh and individualize this familiar goth rock feeling. It's done quite well, mostly intense and glaring throughout their self titled late 2010 LP release with tracks like 'Out Of Time' it also softens ever so slightly with tracks like 'When It's Over'. Check out both tracks below!
