Moon Colony Bloodbath

The Mountain Goats

A collaborative sci-fi folk EP exploring lunar isolation. Hushed vocals, dusty organs, and acoustic guitars create a haunting, out-of-this-world intimacy.

It's a spooky, quiet folk record about living on the moon, and it's much prettier than that sounds.

A quiet, eerie sense of lunar isolation balanced by warm, analog intimacy.

Moments Worth Waiting For
the eerie organ swell that anchors the mid-section of Lucifer Rising
the way the dual vocals on Emerging create a ghostly, disembodied effect
the sudden shift to a more rhythmic, driving acoustic strumming on Sudden Oak Death
