3.5 greatkingsoby1 EMERITUS | October 15th 06

I highly reccommend this to any fan of Mike Patton or John Zorn... the premise is that Zorn wrote this for Patton and a couple others (Trevor Dunn is on bass I think). There are no lyrics; it is nearly a more structured Fantomas.

One of the most original music i listened in a long time. Perfect soundtrack for nightmares.

2.0 poorEasterInTheBatcave | January 26th 16

The first Moonchild release is also their most bare-bones: no musicians apart from the trio of Patton, Dunn, and Baron; less vocals than later releases; and a much smaller focus. The compositions are not as engaging or intricate as the band's best work, occasionally going on too long (the nearly seven-minute band title track), and the heavy, oppressive atmosphere grows dull long before the finish line. Still, great moments (Baron's cymbal work in the middle of "Ghosts of Thelema," the ending of "Abraxas," the chaotic breaks in "616") redeem the record somewhat.
