AVA LUNA - MOON 2 (BLACK)
LP (12"/10" Album)
Label: WESTERN VINYL

Barcode: 0843563103371
Catalog no.: WVLP0000176
Item ID: 465928
On 'Moon 2' Ava Luna's de facto band leader Carlos Hernandez steps back, leaving space for the rest of the band members to step up and step into roles they hadn't occupied on previous albums. Felicia Douglass (now a touring member of Dirty Projectors) worked with percussion and sampler, Julian Fader experimented with synths, nearly every band member ran the computer during recording sessions, and Becca Kauffman (aka performance artist Jennifer Vanilla) composed her first song for the group 'On Its Side The Fallen Fire,' a deeply layered orchestral piece of Kate Bush grandeur meets Julia Holter reverie. Compared with previous Ava Luna albums, Moon 2 has fewer sharp turns into dissonance, fewer celebratory guitar parts, none of Hernandez's signature screams.
Also available: MOON 2 (CD).
