Date sent: 01/11/20

My dreams are leading towards this way too. I saw the Wax Monster in my dreams again last night. There was this open space of grass like a meadow or a football pitch and at the end the trees before the forest. And the monster was there, staring at me. I wanted to reach out but I couldn’t budge. The monster was trying to call me but all I could hear were the geese above my head.

The Sibley Investigation
A collection of 60 postcards sent over months by Bá tước ngỗng, a mysterious Vietnamese Investigator on a hunt around the world (but from Sibley) to try to understand the South Popular Guy and the Wax Monster phenomena.
Each one of the 60 handwritten postcards has been sent by the band with an order of the new pressings of Source Code and The Wax Monster Lives Behind the First Row of Trees (Fruits de Mer Records, re-released on 25th February 2020, copies still available on Bandcamp).
The story will unfold when each recipient shares the content of the postcard they have received with us, by taking a photo of it and sending it to us, either by email at contact@moon‑goose.com or even better share it on social media with the hashtag #sibleyinvestigation, and let us know @moongoosecult. We will then add the postcard’s text to this page to reveal another piece of the investigation.

Bristol gig w/ 10000 Russos
12 October 2021 - in
We had a blast last night in Bristol with 10 000 Russos ! Thanks to all of you who came dancing with us, enjoyed the music, and those who got vinyls. There is nothing more rewarding as a band than to have someone come to us after the gig to say that we blew them away!
Can’t wait for the next one!
We’ll Be back!

Sibley Investigation update: 46 postcards found!
27 September 2021 - in
We’re only missing 14 postcards to finish the Sibley Investigation. Some have probably been opened and ditched or framed above the chimney without sharing with us. That’s fine, it’s part of the game, but now we can’t complete the story until all has been revealed.
So if you want to help us, just send us a message at contact@moon-goose.com with your postal address and we’ll send you one of the missing ones alongside with a few goodies!
Follow-up on the EU shipping madness
7 July 2021 - in
Not long after the previous worrying news of the new VAT based system imposed on everything shipping from the UK to the EU, I got in touch with Bandcamp (our main platform to spread the Goose sounds) and their reply is reassuring. They’re working on it, but everybody is trying to do the same so it’s stuck on a higher administrative plane for now.

There is hope!

Also we’re heading back to the studio on Friday with a guest to add more madness to the previous recordings.. This new album is becoming more and more tangible..
Change in postage fees starting on 1st July for all orders going to the EU
30 June 2021 - in
Starting tomorrow, VAT has to be taken into consideration for every order we send to the EU, which means that because we can’t have a VAT Number for every country we send to and accountants etc. the fees will be charged to you and that’s not good for anyone.
It’s a freaking mess and even though everybody is working to try and find a solution (like having Bandcamp handle that side of things for instance like other platforms do), we don’t have one right now. Another option would be to use a EU distributor to group things and let them handle distribution in the EU.
We’ll keep you updated of course. And if you live anywhere else and would like some Goose gifts, nothing’s changed, https://moongoosecult.bandcamp.com/.
Brexshit, the gift that keeps on giving.
