Hay-on-Wye, August 2020: Area band Moon Goose has only gone and squeezed out, between the cracks of lockdown, another musical collection. The Wax Monster Lives Behind the First Row of Trees (TWMLBTFROT) occupies a liminal space between EP and album, comprising five full tracks and four micro-tracks which are short enough to be used to TikTok videos.
Full of secret communications, the record is best understood as a piece of bricolage held together by a childhood ghost, manifesting in such diverse places as a Vietnamese Banknote and an imaginary cave on the Iowa border.
The music can be enjoyed quite loud, fairly late in the day, accompanied by a human sundae machine if available, on board a fungal transport if possible.
Reviews
TIME MAGAZINE
“They took the British sharp n’ heavy Neo-Space Rock of their previous release and they managed to mingle it with enormous amounts of Kozmique Energy.”

STRANGE BREW
“The Wax Monster Lives Behind the First Row of Trees EP is another ambitious release from Moon Goose, an album that straddles prog and psychedelia, darkness and light, highlighted by lead track 10,000 Đồng. For those who like epic jam and drone it’s available in all good formats.”
