Artists: MOON MOTHER
Who: MM is the voice echoing through a starless night, music born from darkness, yet always carrying a glimmer of light. From the rural landscapes of western Sweden, the duo has built an architecture of earthy, alternative slow rock and melancholic, atmospheric folk with a Nordic touch. A sound they call månrock.
Album: MEADOWLANDS
Their 2nd one, following 2023’s
debut She’s A Starry Night.
Press Info: “On the new album, recorded and produced in their home, live takes and emotion are in focus. Minimalism with a large expression that has then been intuitively built on to create a raw and powerfully atmospheric soundscape that, with the help of traditional, acoustic instruments such as for example accordion and birch-trumpet with large reverbs, has built an earthy, unique and mysterious ambience.
A place where the past meets the present. In the magical world of Meadowlands, the vocals are in the spotlight, surrounded by experimental, string arrangements, grinding acoustic instruments and typical Moon Mother vocalizations, big choirs and the occasional blackbird.”
TUTV: Meadowlands‘s resonates as if Moon Mother recorded it in a covert cocoon far away, from the real world – not a harmonius one whatsoever, as we know – somewhere in the middle of a giant forest. Well, that’s what my mind put into images from what my ears hear.
The duo’s sonic universe doesn’t translate as an earthy one, rather one where reality meets surreality, where doom and gloom are kept under control, where a light shines that never goes out. Melodramatic orchestrations, progressing in slow-motion accentuate the otherwordly atmospherics that float around while Sara Mehner‘s delirious vocals cause goosebumps in the middle of it all.
This is music for twilight moments and deep contemplations.
This is a record that draws your attention away from everyhting
that happens around you.
