“The song is a very string representation of the album’s atmosphere and our mathematical and noisy approach to making music. It’s crazy, with lots of tempo changes, irregular and regular patterns, groovy and chaotic rhythms, all at the same time. Hopefully you can hear our retro approach to recording in the studio with minimum drum mikes, vocals recorded by singing into a pickup of an electro-acoustic guitar, recording door knocking and other ambient sounds… We really had a lot of fun writing and recording this song.” – Nikola Runjavec of Them Moose Rush
We’re pleased to bring you the premiere of Them Moose Rush’s music video for their song “Dumadu Honey” (watch it below). The track is taken from the band’s forthcoming album Don’t Pick Your Noise, which is scheduled to be released on 9th March 2018 through TMR Records, with a vinyl version released through Dostava Zvuka.
About the band:
Hailing from the city of Bjelovar in Croatia, Them Moose Rush are a progressive rock band unlike any other. Working in a genre often fuelled by pomp and circumstance the Eastern European trio have always done things for themselves, and in doing so, done it all inimitably. From directing their own music videos to producing their own photographs, the band even has a penchant for hiding cyphers in songs via Morse codes on keyboards and palindrome/semordnilap messages. And away from the devil in the detail, they simply rock harder and faster than anyone else.
Combining vintage vibes which play dutifully with the blues and heavy rock, their approach to song writing and production bursts with innovation. Much like 2013’s To Future Miss Sunshine, their second full-length album Don’t Pick Your Noise pushes riff after chaotic riff in an attempt to challenge listeners’ perceptions of what a rock and roll trio is truly capable of. Following their debut the band released two EPs that quickly helped establish them as live fixtures on the European festival and tour circuit, performing at Europavox (France), Eurosonic (Holland), INmusic (Croatia) and Krach Am Bach (Germany), alongside international bands such as The Black Keys, Arcade Fire, Pixies, Colour Haze, The Vintage Caravan and Mars Red Sky.
From lead singer Nikola Runjavec’s devastating vocal range, spanning a sonic spectrum that takes in Geddy Lee, Robert Plant and Jack White, to bass player Branimir Kuruc and drummer Vedran Marinko Komlen’s tight ship of a rhythm section, Don’t Pick Your Noise is a progressive, space-fuelled majesty of electric alt-rock and Machina melody.
