Peer Review: Moon Crashers, Finally

http://www.mooncrashers.com/

Moon Crasher’s track Finally is some folk/alt-country poppy-ness. Acoustic guitar, plucked and bowed cello, an expressed sense of belonging and love after some unspecified amount of searching. Lauren Levy’s vocals really find that lazy-happy feeling one gets when they can finally put their cares down, their feet up, and their arm around their lover, preferably by a campfire. An electric guitar lead that runs through the song is just off enough to keep it from being 100% by-the-numbers, but its definitely not breaking any new ground sonically, melodically, harmonically, or lyrically. It’s also not trying to do any of those things, so the easily bored should just shut up and move on already. For everyone else, enjoy a summer jam that would be perfect on a rooftop at sunset with cheap beer and nothing to get hung about.
