The Moi Non Plus
The Moi Non Plus
Catalogue: STA61. Smalltown America.
Description:
These twelve tracks from the Dutch drum/guitar/sample duo combine the unsettling and the explosive – simultaneously unpredictable, yet rhythmically pulsating art-rock delivered with lung-scorching vocal intensity and rib-rattling guitar drones. A challenging yet rewarding sonic experience from a band famed for a teeth-grittedly intense live set.

Press:
musicOMH: "The Moi Non Plus serve as rowdy and dissonant - but nonetheless welcome - reminders that one guitarist plus one drummer do not necessarily equal recycled blues riffs when a bit of art-rock aggression and neo-punk discontent are added to the equation"
Drowned In Sound: "a dissonant aural treat; what The Moi Non Plus has done well is explore the limitations of their sound. They’ve take what is at heart a simple set up and expanded upon it for maximum effect. Amid the clanging and chime are interesting sounds, a hidden depth and textures to be found only through multiple listens."
Supersweet: "Shot through with angst and sedated by their saturation in anti-pop, The Moi Non Plus patchworks the cutting-room keepsakes of this generation. Their empire expands."
