moonshake - gravity

[@masonb9788]

Hard to express how good the First Ep is.

[@leehazlewoodism]

They'd only been together for three days when they recorded this.

[@nickrophiliac7469]

First time I ever heard this, I was exiting the Underworld in Camden & thought it was a new one from MBV. Oddly, a few years later, I was working at Protocol Studios (where much important indie stuff had been recorded) and Margaret Fiedler (singer on this), then working with Laika, commented on my 'Loveless' t-shirt. Cool connection, at the very least

[@leehazlewoodism]

Damn! I realised I spoken to Margaret Fiedler many years after it happened. I'd spotted Laetitia Sadier at a Beck gig, Margaret had seen this and encouraged me to talk to her. I remember a short American girl with bleach blonde hair. It was 1994.

[@tanenholz]

My all-time favorite EP!

[@wowier]

i am so glad you put this up. i've been dying to hear this again after so many years because I lost my copy years ago. Wow, this music, great memories. Thanks!

[@MsMiguel70]

Great post. Glad to see many others have found the hypnotic lure of this track.

[@kennedicotarelo]

so beautiful. moved me to tears.

[@budybradley]

wow.... i remember these guys......

[@sunsetman22]

hypnotic

8 people were watching the Season Finale of Golden Girls when this was playing. Don't blame them, lots of hidden easter eggs in that episode. Requires your full attention.

[@busterabcat]

@Atticwalk Yeah - it's a different more acoustic take on the second track "Coward". This EP is amazing. Even though it owes a lot to MBV........Loved everything Moonshake did when they had their first 1991-1993 line up. That first album Eva Luna and the mini lp Big Good Angel are utterly incredible and like nothing else.

[@rockkiller124]

Magnificent.

[@prospicere]

Mig Moreland drummed for Moose's Live A Little, Love A Lot album.

I've got your lies, but you've got mine

[@nansenscat9315]

sublime

[@PetterLeijon]

WOW!!

[@MarioMarinomolven]

amore

[@ziggyflinthawk]

Such an intense sound! Powerful!!! Ever heard of Lucid Rivers?

[@busterabcat]

@slctdmbntwrx programmed the drums??? He PLAYED THEM!! Moonshake songs ALWAYS had wicked drum rhythms - and incredibly deep subsonic basslines too (from the second EP onwards)

[@masonb9788]

By Dirty and Divine it was totally programmed. I saw them play and no drummer 😕

[@nudaVeritasss]

bellissimo

[@JOSEPPPPHHHH]

Put Coward up. Gone on. Please!!!!

[@ShoeGazer]

che gran figata.

[@hbertl1]

danke, große kunst

[@AndrewWells]

A lesson in compression...

[@andersontimmm]

anyone know how/where to get the other tracks on this EP? Coming and Hanging are shoegaze classics...

[@johndavies8728]

Coward is the tune you want mun, an American girl singing English folk over showgaze pure brilliance

[@giobot]

what.cd has it

[@andyking7621]

Update. 6 people are just plain wrong. I pity them and their dour, soulless lives.

[@mariocosta7966]

8 fans of Muse.....sure

[@richardcooper2293]

It actually sounds like being in love.

[@chazotron600]

Who are the 3 idiots who put "thumbs down"!?

[@shoegeezr]

It was an awesome debut. Then some genius decided that the guy that sounds like Sugarcube Einar's lost brother would make a better singer than Ms. Fiedler. Can you spell ANNOYING?

[@hattiethecactus804]

Bahahaha

[@emmineffin]

The first time I heard Eva Luna I thought exactly that.

[@andyking7621]

update ... 8 idiots now .... they appear to be growing at a steady rate 2/yr
