THE MOTHS: "Games" is a new 7" single on Label Fandango. I once went out with a girl who had a very real fear of moths, she just didn't like the idea of them or the look of them. I don't know what she'd make of these Moths. Nagging incessant vocals driven by spiky guitars and an insistent beat. Reminds moi of something from 70's, a bit new wave (after punk) or maybe even the Buzzcocks- the vocalist sounds a little like Pete Shelley. Limited to one per person says Mr Phil. That ex of mine didn't much like music either really.New Fandango 7" ; Strictly limited. Big Buzz on this band...... THE MOTHS (a West London trio) are an electro-punk sensation waiting to happen. Already over the past few months the handful of live shows played by THE MOTHS have had hearts a'fluttering across the capital. Eschewing the dull-eared bravado of the nascent Lad Rock scene THE MOTHS proffer love, arrogance, poetry, some cracking drum machine rhythms and a frontman who has been drawing creditable comparisons to everyone from Pete Shelley to Marc Almond via Brett Anderson. Crucially they also provide corking tunes – three of which have made it onto this, their debut single – and the sort of heartfelt paeans to emotional pain which could make Moths cheerleaders of us all.
