Currently based in Brooklyn, Mooncult is an exciting post punk outfit led by the songwriter and vocalist Raven Mystere who original started the project back in Echo Park, Los Angeles. The lineup is completed by Rajeev Ananda on lead guitar, Tia Cestaro on drums and Grover Doyle on bass and rhythm guitar, together drawing inspiration from an array of musical influences, including Siouxsie and the Banshees, Cocteau Twins, Sonic Youth and The Cure.
Mooncult first unveiled their sound with the debut album Swallow Me Whole, released in 2020, introducing the world to their dark pop rock sound. Since then, they’ve continued to win over audiences with a string of compelling singles while crafting their forthcoming sophomore record.
Their latest release, the new single titled “All in My Head,” perfectly showcases their knack for crafting uptempo rock music infused with vibrant punk energy. The song bursts to life with an infectious twangy guitar riff, underpinned by pulsating bass lines and splashy drum work.
Raven Mystere’s vocals glide in with a punchy delivery and as the track unfolds, it captures the raw and fuzzy essence that defines Mooncult’s electrifying live performances. The chorus of “All in My Head” is an energising display of Mooncult’s ability to deliver catchy hooks and rousing instrumentation.
It’s a sonic explosion of rock energy that packs a real punch. However, Mooncult’s musical dexterity shines through as they float into a more delicate sound during the bridge. Here, bright jangly guitar tones weave with Raven’s sweet vocal leads, crafting a smooth and blissful outro.
“All in My Head” is a distillation of Mooncult’s signature rock n’ roll essence. Its potency lies in its ability to capture the listener’s imagination and ignite anticipation for the band’s upcoming album. The song’s energising guitars, propulsive drums and Raven Mystere’s commanding vocals all collide to deliver a thrilling post punk experience.
