Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following a major lineup schism that led to the formation of Laika, David Callahan steered Moonshake into an even more abrasive, sample-heavy direction on their sophomore album. Fusing aggressive post-punk rhythms with extensive, discordant brass arrangements and dub techniques, the record is a crucial touchstone for the development of urban British post-rock.
