The Moon Seven Times

About Me

"Trying to describe The Moon Seven Times' new Roadrunner Records album Sunburnt is like taking witness statements at a crime scene. No two versions come out the same. It's a tapestry of oceanic guitar musings interwoven with sublimely complex poetry. No, no it's airy pop-rock arrangements with a driving rhythm section. Or maybe it's simply excellent musicianship combined with solid storytelling. Blah, blah, blah... Who cares what you call it--the music's just cool." ~ [Charles Baudelaire} +++ +++ +++ +++Chaining the intense guitar effects of the Jesus & Mary Chain to relaxing female dream-pop, the Moon Seven Times formed in the early '90s around the focus of vocalist Lynn Canfield and guitarist Henry Frayne. The group released their self-titled debut album in early 1993, and signed to Roadrunner Records later that year. Both 7 Equals 49 and 1997's Sunburnt appeared on Roadrunner. ~ [John Bush, All Music Guide] +++ +++ +++ +++ +++ +++ +++ +++ +++
