Moon Theory pushes the trip-hop envelope with hypnotic and aggressive beats, mesmerising female vocals, and unearthly atmospherics. Carefully crafted, enjoyable and accessible songs with symmetrical melodies and deeply fascinating and stirring lyrics. Like Garbage on ecstacy, the self-titled CD tantalises with a guitar-oriented, organic beauty while injecting potent doses of futuristic chaos. Imagine Nine Inch Nails after a few years in an ashram. Or a track from the new Matrix Soundtrack. Vocalist Kaeti O'Ghara commands with a powerfully engaging style likened to ***** with the smoothness of Morcheeba and the moodiness of Portishead. Moon Theory's lyrics and melodies have a gothic feel like Sousxie and the Banshees with an edgy burn. Production, instrumentation, and arrangements accomplished by the alchemical TSO. An extremely immaculate, modern and broadly appealing production quality. Moon Theory morphs driving hiphop beats with dangerous liquid encantations both sensual and ancient.
