    Vancouver's The Moor are back with their second release "From Smoke And Sorrow", released yesterday (digital only, vinyls are coming soon). Just like the one before, this album is composed of 6 tracks of amazing post-punk. Dual vocals alternating between singing and declaiming slogans. Virtuosity on guitar without showing off and getting lost in endless solos. An impeccable rhythm section. A synth outro for folklore. Dark, haunting, beautiful. A lot of bands end off sounding like a ripoff of the old school anarcho classics when trying out this style, but not The Moor. They have their own je ne sais quoi that makes them stand out. Also their band photo on bandcamp is one of the best I've seen so far.

    The Moor Biography

    WEBSITE
    Canadian punk / post-punk band from Vancouver, British Columbia.

    Band members: Tyler Steinke
    ---

    1) Founded in September of 2008, The Moor's creative core consists of musical and romantic duo Erica Daking (ex-F-Minus) and Josiah Steinbrick (ex-F-Minus), transplanted from the North East to Los Angeles at the turn of the millennium. Their debut album was recorded with Ben Lovett in the basement of their Victorian home, amidst the cozied hills and winding vistas of the east side's Mount Washington neighborhood. The resulting eight songs are a haunting concoction of synthesizers, piano, subdued guitars, and mesmerizing vocals, creating a raw wall of sound that evokes and impresses with equal measure. With musical contributions from Josh Klinghoffer (PJ Harvey, Red Hot Chili Peppers), Simon Lord (Simian, Black Ghosts), and Bryan Hollon (Boom Bip, Neon Neon) and finishing touches by mix guru Noah Georgeson (Joanna Newsom, The Strokes) the swagger of the instrumentation couples with the moody, candid lyrics and the velvet arrangements in a dream-scape of hypnotic rhythms.

    A cabaret of the imagination, The Moor's live show expands the album through a lush blend of precision and improvisation, where they're joined on stage by members of such bands as Warpaint, Darker My Love, and Little Joy. Not to be missed, the experience draws the listener further into the pretty, mercurial world painted so deftly on the album.

    Born in New York and raised by a duet of musicians, Erica has been writing and recording music since she was thirteen. Steinbrick, a Providence native and composer, is often sought out by the likes of Danger Mouse, Devendra Banhart, and White Fence's Tim Presley for his work both in the studio and on stage.

    2) Progressive metal band from Venice, Italy.
    Hailing from Venice (IT), The Moor was formed in the summer of 2009 by vocalist/guitarist Enrico Longhin and guitarist Davide Carraro (both ex-members of Bleed In Vain).
    Recorded during spring/summer 2010, mixing and mastering sessions took place at Studio Fredman (Sweden) with acclaimed producers Fredrik Nordstrom and Henrik Udd (In Flames, Dream Evil, Opeth, Dimmu Borgir, Bring Me The Horizon).
    Since their inception, The Moor has consistently incorporated sounds from prog rock, metal, death metal, and alternative influences into their compositions making for a very compelling end product; yet all the time with a metal outlook.
    In the run-up to the band’s full-length debut album released in 2012, Lion Music released the band’s self-titled 5-track EP ‘The Moor’ on 27th January 2012 on all leading digital platforms (iTunes, Amazon, etc).
    Lion Music released The Moor first full-length debut album “Year Of The Hunger” on November the 16th of 2012. Recordings took place at Flameout Studio (Italy) while the mastering session this time took place at Fascination Street Studio with producer Jens Bogren (James La Brie, Devin Townsend, Opeth, Paradise Lost).
    In the winter of 2013, The Moor released their first official VIDEO for the song “Year Of The Hunger” featuring the award-nominated actor Guido Laurjni, the video is a short film directed by Andrea Livieri and written by the band itself.
    In the Summer of 2014, the band teamed up with Bjorn Speed Strid from the world acclaimed band Soilwork, and they released their single “The Castaway” available worldwide.


    The band took it to the next level in 2018 and delivered their independently sophomore studio album Jupiter's Immigrants (with the addition of guitarist Andrea Livieri) where they defined their metal roots and signature sound, mixed at Studio Fredman by Fredrik Nordström.

    3) Alias of Kenneth Magnusson

    4) Hardcore punk band from Melbourne, Australia.
