Soon Won't Be Long by MOUSSE
New Album
Released 17 November 2023
What to say?
This is the first time I feature a whole album, and an album that is 10 songs long, as opposed to the usual EP type releases of a few, that seem to be the norm right now.
Do I have a favourite? Where to start:
'Smoking Gun' and 'Mousse Motel' hit it off straight away.
Also, do not give up on 'Knuckle', with its hugely long cord/lead guitar intro and wait for it to kick in around 1.12. You will not be disappointed.
Not sure where these guys have been hiding, although they are from Auckland, New Zealand, so from Europe, that's as far away as it gets.
Caitlin Norris, writing in Australia's HAPPY online music review site, has a lot more to say about these guys, all of which I agree with - PREMIERE: MOUSSE debut LP and indie rock gem Soon Won’t Be Long
Now, seeing as I will visit at the end of the year, time to check them out live.
