Babel Racket by MONIKER

Moniker’s second EP reflects the band’s evolution towards precision rock and guitar based psychedelia. The songs are heavy, but maintain a true melody, with Keith Richards-esque guitar riffs supported by a strong rhythmic foundation.

Thematically, the album explores the importance of language as a tool for building communities, and the breakdown of communication as a source of alienation among artists specifically, and societies in general. The songs reflect the excitement (and frustration) of being an independent musician during such an uncertain time in American history.

Recorded over the course of only two weeks at Wadzilla Mansion in Allston, MA, “Babel Racket” is directly inspired by the burgeoning post-rock scene in Boston.

Progressive-psychedelic rock band based out of Boston: effect-drenched guitar riffs, manic rhythms, and sonic storytelling.

Now known as KILLER CORTEZ.
