The Moonies - Blue

The Moonies are another bunch of teenagers with guitars and this EP is a bewildering mix of classic prog rock and itsy bitsy kiddies music.

Production makes the songwriting sound more impressive than it is. 'Blue' has screaming digitised guitars all over it a la Garbage, while 'So Good' reminds one of classic Buzzcocks.

By no means a bad debut, especially considering they're all just out of nappies and have some, erm, developing to do, but they need to rely less on production and more on songwriting.
