- Lisa Colvin
"For those interested in trance-induction via tube amplifier, San Francisco's slow-psych sleepwalkers Moonbell churn out basslines via analog synth, trade off on spaced-out vocal duties, and drench everything in shimmering echo like the eternally damned acolytes of '80s/'90s noise pop they are (think Taking Drugs to Make Music to Take Drugs To meets Isn't Anything). The trio of guitar/vocalist Garen Ingleby, synthesizer/vocalist Lisa Dawn Colvin and drummer David Paslay got together in 2010. Their first full-length album, Moonbell, courtesy of Loglady Records (Vinyl) and Deep Space Recordings (CD), is a smoldering fever dream of a recording, with deliberate tempos, super duper trippy guitars and a deceptive gentleness; “Figurine,” for one, pile-drives into your brain with a buzzing bass moog counterpointed by ultra fragile vocals. Beloved moves of noisy dream/doom pop meld with Krautrock elements where the repetitiveness is intrinsic. Support from guest vocalist Stacia Benevento on "Still Motion" adds a ghostly beauty to the slow burning sonics. The end result lands the band in welcome company with the finest purveyors of hypnotic heaviness." - Mike McGuirk
