    Read some of the reviews here...

    The Moons debut release is jam packed with well crafted gems where strong melodies prevail. Plenty of hooks, heartfelt vocals and close harmonies make Life on Earth a must own classic for 2010 - HMV  

    "Stylishly eclectic take on the past... Life on Earth fizzes with ideas, pinballing from bristling mod pop ('Don't Go Changin') and paranoic freakbeat ('Nightmare Day') to intoxicating wafts of Mersey psychedelia ('Torn Between Two') with a glee worthy of Tommy" 4**** - Q Magazine

    Great songs and playing. Well thought out arrangements and above all, a lot of love has gone into this record - Paul Weller

    Emotional, funny, quirky, warm, sad, reflective, thoughtful and unique songs. Love the guitars and the vocal sincerity” – Dave Davies , The Kinks

    7/10 - Clash Magazine

    Influences are worn on sleeves – The Move, Beatles, Coral, Who, Prisoners – but there's nothing pastiche about the Moons for like Supergrass, the former On Offs man Andy Crofts embodies the ebullient joy of discovering what's gone before, without being overly serious, and melding it to masterful 60s styled songwriting comes up with something alive with super pop thrills - MOJO

    Lunar tunes 4/5 stars - Q Magazine 

    There was a time when the world worshipped at the throne of Paul Weller and you couldn’t move for rock bands plundering the best of ’60s rock and soul. The Moons hark back to the best of the scene
