Ever since Spencer Krug took a break from Wolf Parade and Sunset Rubdown, hes been nothing if not forthcoming: the titles of Krugs two releases as Moonface let you know exactly what to expect. Dreamland EP: marimba and shit-drums sounds like exactly that, and full-length Organ Music Not Vibraphone Like Id Hoped was created almost entirely from the titular instrument, although its often tweaked to sound like the analog synths hes so fond of. What anchors Moonface to Krugs first two projects, though, are his unmistakable voice and his inscrutable lyrics, as he weaves strange tales over stranger organ experimentations. Itll be interesting to see how it all translates to the stage, but if its even a fraction as good as Wolf Parades live show, its worth checking out. ANDREW GOSPE
