The Moniters are on the move to promote their debut EP Sex City Lovers. The band will play a string of shows along the East Coast over the next couple of months, starting with tonight’s hometown gig in Brisbane.
This track “Lights Go Down” gives us a taste of what we can expect from this outfit. It’s a little bit angsty with a real focus on melody, something like I expect the lovechild of Placebo and Duran Duran might sound like. I’m really digging the wailing guitars and dark, brooding vocals. That’s not surprising though, because I was also impressed by the band’s debut single “Exit the System” last September.
