Moonlight Bride – Diego

By Chris Gedos

“Diego” is the opening track from Moonlight Bride’s upcoming Twin Lakes EP, set for release Feb. 28th, the day before leap year day. These Chattanoogans are adept at toeing the line between noise-pop and shoegaze, however faint that line may be. A lullaby acoustic and accompanying vibraphone provides a great intro for the rollicking beat, but when the acoustic returns after the noise pop verse and 90’s chorus, we begin to hear a method behind Moonlight Bride’s madness. Kinda like if the Gin Blossoms decided to play like MBV. Expect these cats to generate a stir at SWSX. Oh! And BTW, Super Bowl XLVI prediction: Giants 30, Patriots 21.
