Anthemic pop riffs flirt with raucous rock roots on For You The Moon’s debut single “Lost Without It”
“As anthemic, pop-infused riffs flirt with raucous rock roots, it’s clear that “Lost Without It” is only the tip of the exhilarant For You The Moon iceberg. ”
In a moment that’s so serendipitous it could almost be a scene from an adolescent rom-com, For You The Moon first met in a fated encounter at a houseparty where they bonded over a shared love of Basement, The Killers and Bring Me The Horizon. And their sound follows the same cinematic trajectory. Messy break-ups, a bit too much partying and freedom from the shackles of emotional repression are integral to the Leeds-based foursome’s visceral, roaring rhythms.
No strangers to heart-on-the-sleeve vulnerability and honest emotion, the latest single from the alt-rock pioneers is as raw as it is resolute. Frontman Isaac Cooter’s tender, confessional lyricism blends with bittersweet, temptingly euphoric guitar licks to create the band’s beguiling pop-rock sound. As anthemic, pop-infused riffs flirt with raucous rock roots, it’s clear that “Lost Without It” is only the tip of the exhilarant For You The Moon iceberg.
