Does Mope City make music to which you can mope? Well, we suppose you could do that. But we find their art intriguing and entertaining even when we are in a good mood. Their latest effort is Population: 4, ten tracks of jangling, twanging downcast rock that may call to mind Low, Polvo, or a somewhat deconstructed Jesus and Mary Chain. Perhaps it is the aftermath of Halloween, but more likely it is just us, but we find jangling guitars, thundering bass and gloomy vocals to be right up our alley these days. We began the day with the album as the soundtrack for our morning coffee, and we'll end it with one more spin before bed. Three of our favorites are below, and we think we reflect the range of the songs on the album. Enjoy!
Mope City are Amaya Lang, Matt Neville Shaun Donovan, and Nick Johnson. Population: 4 is out now via Tenth Court Records.

This album sounds wonderfully atmospheric! The description of jangling, twanging downcast rock that evokes Low, Polvo, and a deconstructed Jesus and Mary Chain is incredibly intriguing. It's the perfect soundtrack for a moody day or a reflective evening with a good coffee. The band's name and the album title are brilliantly fitting for this style of music. For a bit of a change of pace after a dark and moody listen, you might enjoy exploring https://vegasheros-casino.co.uk/app/ for a different kind of entertainment. I'm definitely going to give "Population: 4" a spin from start to finish!
