Moreish Idols - All In The Game
Falmouth-formed Moreish Idols return with details of their highly anticipated debut album āAll In The Gameā, out 7th March on Speedy Wunderground. The album follows their recent singles āPale Blue Dotā and āSlouchā (with the former marking the labelās 50th 7ā single), which have seen the band earn plaudits from the likes of NME, CLASH, DIY, Dork, Wonderland, and BBC Radio 6 Music. Moreish Idols have carved out a unique position for themselves in the burgeoning London scene. Whereas their debut material showcased a restless, jerky, jagged and rhythmically centred sound that bore the influence of energetic post-punk, their second EP showcased an entirely different side to the band. This evolution saw the group stitch together a looser constellation of ideas, combining swooning tremolo guitars, prickly melodic riddles, erudite saxophone improvs, and flexible rhythms, sounding like Watery, Domestic-era Pavement one second and the bucolic Canterbury Scene the next, but always, always like Moreish Idols most of all.āAll In The Gameā is filled with Dan Careyās eccentric production ideas, largely inspired by the concept of time. For the title-track, Carey asked Humphreys to play the same saxophone part at different tempos, recording onto tape which was itself moving at different speeds. He also suggested splitting one of the demo tracks in half, with the first half played as the opening track āAmbergrinā, and the second as the slower, less saturated outro āTimeās Wastingā: designed to sound like a memory of the former. A nod to their debut EP āFloatā ā which can be played on a continuous loop ā the return of the track in this more ethereal, ghostly form captures how ideas, stories and observations are changed by the process of remembering.
