Sold For Tomorrow, the band’s debut album, will undoubtedly inspire bedroom rock out dance parties across the nation. The CD is packed full of immediately catchy pop songs inspired by sixties rock ‘n’ roll bands (The Beatles, Beach Boys), late seventies punk (Ramones, Blondie), and an assorted variety of right now (Blur, Libertines). Sold For Tomorrow was recorded in Hungary at
Tom-Tom Studios, mixed by Jack Endino (Nirvana, Hot Hot Heat, Soundgarden) at Electrokitty in Seattle and mastered in LA with Dave Schultz (Pretenders, Otis Redding). Lyrically, the record takes the listener on a ride through the ups, downs and new beginnings we all experience day to day but the upbeat melodies never allow for any melancholy. This is an album full of those feel good summer songs we wait for all year. Opening track “Your Sweet Neck” sticks in your head like bubble gum sticks to your shoe. The sorrowful libretto weaves tales of unrequited love, while the effervescent guitars turn an otherwise sad tale into one of new beginnings. The first single, “I Like You,” is a captivating, hook filled declaration of love, the lyrics of which are sure to be scrawled across notebooks and tucked away into lockers across the country come April. "Anyone" takes the album down a notch with a touch of tongue-in-cheek cabaret and slow dancing, while the closing track, “Xanax Youth,” is so full of rambunctious guitar and intense percussion it will lead you straight into sensory explosion.
Sold For Tomorrow gets to the core of The Moog. A little bit experimental, a little bit indie rock, a little bit pop – all good!
