Listen: Moon King - "Apocalypse" [Premiere]
Canadian twosome Moon King are sharing "Apocalypse", the second taster of debut record Secret Life, exclusively via Best Fit.
The cut's a frothy bath-bomb kind of guitar pop. It begins sweetly, floating in the same kind of sonic worlds as tourmates Alvvays, before gradually gearing up and disintegrating into a million billion pieces of sound; towards the end, Moon King bolt on psych-rock walls of hypnotic noise that will melt your brain like ice cream in a microwave.
The duo's debut LP Secret Life is due 14 April via Last Gang.
