Mooth
Slow Sun

It’s probably trendy to mention sludge in presentations, but honestly, in the case of Mooth and their "Slow Sun," someone needs to explain to me what the hell that has to do with it. You could say anything, except that you're facing a production of this kind. Especially because if you add the term noise-rock to it, well, we are on two totally opposite planets. Perhaps that latter musical genre could be competing in terms of stylistic influences, as fundamentally, this quartet in their own way fits more or less into that line. A songwriting made of nervous guitars, a drum that plays the rhythms at its pleasure, and an acidic singing that perfectly follows the sound trail are the main ingredients of "Slow Sun". As often happens in these cases, the production of the sounds has been reduced to a minimum, thus offering a work that is generally aggressive in its progression, interspersed with continuous rhythmic upheavals that do not allow you to quickly target each track. Interesting is the work done on the lyrics, reflective yet loaded with grim irony. In conclusion, we could talk about this album as something generally interesting and certainly not lacking in grit, but what perhaps seems to be missing is its own artistic soul, capable of putting Mooth in the spotlight in a sound context that today seems to be back in vogue. Recommended for fans of the genre.
