SONIC MASALA: Raw Moans In Da Hood

Raw Moans In Da Hood

Ah, Raw Moans. Alongside Mickey Mickey Rourke, these guys were sonic rapscallions that invaded the airwaves last year, then seemed to go a bit quiet... Now both are about to explode back on the scene. First up is 'Boyz In Da Hood', a Raw Moans track that espouses to the witch house tag they have been lumbered with (as is the stupid spelling of their title tracks), yet this song is rather engaging - well, after a few strong coffees at 1am it hit all the right chords... It's eerie trash pop, played at the bottom of a shiny well, produced at its finest - and that is a compliment.

About

It was early on a Sunday morning at ATP - A Nightmare Before Christmas 2009. After downing a fair few, at 4am we decided to cook a curry. It was during the consumption of this drunkenly delicious breakfast treat that we decided to actually do something about the music we talk about all the time.

So we started a blog – and Sonic Masala was born. Now into its seventh year, the blog has spread out to call both Australia and the UK its home (and the rest of the world), and has expanded to include gigs, festivals and a record label under its black umbrella. Come on, eat the noize.

If an mp3 is up here, it's because we have been talking about it, and think the whole world needs to know more. It's there to give you a little taste. Then, if you like, check out the band live and spend all your hard earned cash on their records. If we've posted up an mp3 of your stuff and you're not too keen on the idea, let us know and we'll happily take it down pronto.
