WHITE HOT MOON

Ann Arborâ€™s Pity Sex built the world of White Hot Moon, their second album, inch-by-inch. The band is using the foundation of 2013â€™s celebrated Feast of Love as the framework for something bigger, stronger, and altogether more monumental. Coming off of tours with Ceremony, Eskimeaux, and Colleen Greenâ€”including a run in Australiaâ€”the band dove into the studio with Feast of Love producer Will Yip to harness that momentum into an album to showcase Pity Sexâ€™s growth. And if White Hot Moon wears its ambition on its sleeve, thatâ€™s by design: the band looked to wide-screen albums by Yo La Tengo and Sonic Youth for inspiration in finding a bigger sound. That shows: Drake and Greaves spin huge webs of sound, anchored in shoegaze but branching off in a dozen directions, from fuzzed-out power-pop (â€œBonhomieâ€) to shimmering balladry (â€œDandelionâ€) and back again, while St. Charles and Pierce lock into step subtly counterintuitive rhythms and floor-shaking low-end. The result of this playful but dedicated approach to their craft: wherever you visit White Hot Moon, youâ€™ll come away refreshed, revitalized, and ready for Pity Sex to guide you along the rest of the trip.
