The Moonlight EP

Released in 2007, The Moonlight EP serves as a companion piece to the band's critically acclaimed third album, Myth Takes. It features the standout single Must Be the Moon, which became a definitive anthem of the dance-punk revival. The EP is notable for its inclusion of the original Nashville Jam version of Bend Over Beethoven, showcasing the band's improvisational roots and raw live chemistry. Additionally, the closing track is a cover of The Magnetic Fields' Take Ecstasy With Me, reimagined through the band's signature lens of driving rhythms and atmospheric synths. Critics at the time, including those from Pitchfork and NME, noted the EP's ability to maintain the high energy of their full-length releases while offering a more experimental look at their remix and cover capabilities. It remains a fan favorite for its concentrated dose of the band's rhythmic intensity.
