Electro-rock from NYC: Moon Furies announce debut EP

Based in Brooklyn via Chicago, electronic trio Moon Furies is picking up steam after opening for compatible artists like Peter Bjorn and John, Chairlift and Nite Jewel. The band already released 2 singles in 2012 and is putting the final touches on their debut EP, scheduled for a 2012 release and entitled "Not Earth". The twosome’s dark electro-pop reinterprets the dark electronic sound of the early 80s in a personal direction involving – among other things – real drums and a sweeping electric guitar. – Chelsea Eriksen
