Moose

Moose - Jack EP / Cool Breeze EP / Reprise EP (Hut, 1991)











Not so much underrated as unheard, Moose grew up in Britain's distortion-heavy shoegazing movement of the early '90s but soon shed the fuzzy wash of their compatriots to embrace a clean, acoustic-based style -- inspired by '60s icons Burt Bacharach and Tim Buckley as well as jangle merchants like The Byrds and R.E.M. -- that still relied on the intense guitar effects which characterized the band's early works.
