The Soft Moon have been called lots of things, including post-punk and cold wave, but regardless of classification, they have consistently been hailed as one of the most promising acts to come out of San Francisco in recent memory. Originally a one-time recording project of Luis Vasquez, the Soft Moon ended up turning into a full-fledged touring band. Mood-heavy synth and driving bass propel this haunting assemblage to heights that will either make you want to dance or cower in fear.

Rickshaw Stop says…

The one-man project of Luis Vasquez, the Soft Moon gives the darkly hypnotic sounds of Suicide, Joy Division, Bauhaus, and Krautrock new life with a stripped-down, lo-fi approach. Vasquez is also inspired by his Afro-Cuban heritage and the wide-open spaces of the Mojave Desert where he was raised.
