I didn't know what to expect from a band with the name Moses And The Burning Bush; I thought this could sound like anything. And it clearly does sound like anything, you can't really pinpoint a certain area, just all sorts of areas combined together to make something more explosive and out there. Just when you think things are going to be a bit timid and slow, they completely change course and go in the opposite direction. You can't deny that this is some raw and intense stuff here, the way it just comes at you and leaves you shaking in your seat or up moving from your seat - for me the second one is top choice! After saying all of that, this is really impressive; I like different, and different is what I got!

Kickin off firstly is "I Want This To End", the thumping beat of the drums mixes well with the jaggy guitar riffs to hit you straight away. Then following is these quite distinctive, sort of whining but not annoying vocals that almost shout the lyrics to the listeners. This works very well and gives a certain sort of swagger to the music, something that grasps your attention and keeps you hooked as to what might pop up next. There's just enough rhythm swinging to get you moving on the floor, the sound is almost something you wouldn't expect, but greatly enjoy. Love the backdrop of this greatly.

"Honey" drips in next which keeps up the brilliant guitar work and gets a little bit more down and dirty with it. Such a kick ass intro, it's more of a jam session than intro and works very well. The vocals come in seamlessly and catch you by surprise, you almost feel like you're listening to a whole different singer as they sound somewhat different than before. I prefer the backdrop music to the lyrics on this one. After a while it all tends to dull on me and falls short to keep my attention, but saying that I really do like the background noise again.

Lastly is "The Light Of The City" and I instantly prefer this on to the others. The lighter, more bouncy backdrop suits the vocal much better than heard in the previous songs. The lyrics rock in this one as well, making this my favorite of the bunch. Infectious to a tee, I found myself listening to this one quite a few times before moving on. I instantly think of the British band "The Horrors", but more watered down. I prefer this actually!

If you like something different, then you'll love this. If you like to play it safe and follow the crowd, then this would be too much for you and chances are you won't get it anyway. The music is inventive and has a certain charm and character to it. I appreciate that quality in them and look forward to what might come in the future!
