Specific Wonderland

Moonkisser are a band that I enjoy, but it feels like I rarely listen to. They will release a new record and I'll give it a number of spins, really like it, and then put it on the shelf and forget about it. Then they will release something new and I'll be like, "oh yeah, I should listen to Moonkisser more". Also, when I listen to the band, it will remind me of that mid 90's emo post-hardcore stuff like Lincoln or other Art Monk bands and then I'll just want to listen to that instead. But yeah, Moonkisser is really good and when I heard that they had a new record on the way, I jumped in to preorder.
I've been slow to check out any new record that I've received this year. I won't hesitate to buy it, but then I'll just let it sit there for months before going "well, I guess I've got to blog about this, so I should probably listen to it". So over the past two days, I've listened to Specific Wonderland five times... and not just so that I could act like I knew what the fuck I was talking about in this post, but because it is really good. I've even gone back and pulled Summer's Fleeting Majesty off the shelf to listen to that one as well. Yeah, this band is so good. Thank you new record for the reminder.
The label lists this colored vinyl as "neon magenta" but I prefer to just call it "hot pink". Looks so good. Limited to 100.
