Black Moth, Leeds-based heavy outfit, has just released a second single ‘White Lies’ from their forthcoming second album Condemned To Hope, set for release September 15 via New Heavy Sounds.
Described by A.V. Club as ‘a pounding mass of heavy, blackened punk rock fronted by the spiky vocals of lead singer Harriet Bevan’, Black Moth could be called either that, doom-punk or stone rock – that does not change the fact that an English quintet is preparing something amazing in their next record. Not as heavy as their first single – ‘Room 13’ – ‘White Lies’, with distinctive ‘British’ bass parties and provocative vocals, has all charm and sobriety needed, collected together to make you move to the beat.
Reviewing their first LP ‘The Killing Jar’, Spin pictured Black Moth as ‘riff-rock that splits the difference between Queens of the Stone Age and Black Sabbath’, and this couldn’t be any more truth. Continuing that tradition, the band’s second record proves to be even more into that specific sound, opening the way for British stone punk rockers to become a fresh foremost face on the world’s heavy music stage.
