Previously dedicated towards educating the world about hipsters, this blog now has been revamped to cover the ongoings of aspiring rock band, Rattling Moon.
Here's a run through of a song we wrote a while back. It's sort of a slow jam song, which escalates, so if you don't like the singing, listen to the jam session that starts about three minutes in. The rap which Sam does at the end of the video was a freestyle!
Enjoy

Rattling moon, being Sam Slocum on keyboard and Vocals, Dominic Gould on Bass Guitar, Sam Greenberg on drums, and myself, Nathan Gittleman on guitar and vocals, performed at a variety show. The first song is an original, called Daniel Hawthorne, a blues rock piece, pretty simple, fun to jam off of. The name actually came from Sam Slocum hearing the Name in the chorus, even though the actual lyrics are "and my heart won't". We decided to keep with it as the name. Our Lazaretto cover, from Jack White, is a very fun punkish, alternative track, great to just go all out on as Sam did an amazing job. Throughout the performance, many catastrophes were solved by good teamwork. I dropped my pick and Dom gave me a new one, the mic stand was sinking and Slocum put it back up, Dom's pedal wasn't working, so I kicked the cable, etc. Hope you enjoy.

Greetings fellow umm, I don't know what to call you guys anymore, whatever. Today I would like to discuss Rattling Moon's expiremental single, Objects in the Mirror are Closer than the appear. It's simple lyrics are met with ambient guitar and and melodic, intoxicating bass. A simple techno influenced drum beat proceeds in the background. The end result is rather odd and is not something that those who do not listen to expiremental music would appreciate, those who do like it will enjoy. Here is the link towards the single on souncloud, below is a video of the song without the guitar part.
