The Hillbilly Moon Explosion Release Their New Album ‘With Monsters and Gods’ On May 13th

The band returned to hide Switzerland, where they first blossomed in the Zurich Rockabilly scene, to hone their latest album. It concerns itself with “making friends with your demons”. The title track deals with this and ‘deep love’, while the rest of the album warns what can happen if “you’re afraid of your demons and ignore them which might lead you to Depression and Desperation and constantly being Down on your Knees.”

The album itself seems an angst filled expression of feeling. A desperation not to be sedated, clawing at the rawest of emotions.

Their biggest hit to date was My Love For Evermore. This particular tune is all about juxtaposition. Placing a Tom Waits soundalike with the sweet tones of sultry lady makes for wonderful melancholy.
