“An innovative album that may well appeal to fans of post-rock, spacerock, psych-folk and even metal, without strictly being any of those things itself.”

Great review, and a nice touch for mentioning animal noises on ‘Fist fight at the Bingo’.
No animals were harmed during the recording of this album. (it’s just us howling)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Very nice review from blurtonline.com:
“Succinct, melodic, and tighter than a nun’s ass”

“It’s rare these days for a record to stun me upon first listen, but that’s exactly what happened with Moon Goose’s debut album.”

You can enjoy the rest here:

Source Code is available for pre-order on Bandcamp

“A Sky-scraping double album that relentlessly takes the guitar instrumental format intro fresh anarchic orbits.”

Our upcoming album Source Code has been featured in this month’s Prog Magazine and described as “if early Iron Butterfly collided with Hawkwind in a Martian Motorway Café” ! How cool is that?

We also have Knifeless Skinning on the Cd that goes with the magazine!

“Source Code” van Moon Goose staat vol swingende uptempo nummers, die diverse invloeden bevatten, waarmee de band me van begin tot einde heeft weten te boeien en ik kan iedere liefhebber van dance, rock en spacerock deze 2LP dan ook van harte aanraden.” (“Source Code” from Moon Goose is full of swinging up-tempo songs, with various influences. The band has fascinated me from start to finish and I can therefore heartily recommend this 2LP to every fan of dance, rock and space rock.)
