"at least we're here together..."
"IDFR" by Glasgow based MOY with the jubilant post punk lines that for me are bathed in a sort of 80's power pop punch is not afraid to celebrate the dizzy power of garage rock but also feel quite pop forward. Some of that pop sense is on account of the vocal aesthetic that have melodic pop tone combined with a sinewy soul and funk fiber provided by the band's namesake, New Zealand born Moy.
Of the track he shares:
“‘IDFR’ is a collision of two worlds, with the first instrumental demo being created through late night jam sessions in Glasgow, and the lyrics being written in New Zealand before the band met in 2018. Re-recording the song fresh in 2021 was a trip through time. We recently acquired a rare Japanese distortion box from the ‘80s, which sparked the inspiration to make it the way it sounds today.”

The Glasgow-based quintet debuted in 2019 with their self-released track ‘Start Me Up’. They have proved to be impossible to second guess, putting a fresh touch to influences spanning psychedelia, alternative rock, indie, grunge and power pop.
The fiery energy of ‘IDFR’ gives fans a taste of what to expect from MOY’s intense and charismatic live shows. They’re set to play both legs of the Stag & Dagger festival which hits Glasgow (November 13th) and Edinburgh (November 14th), with further shows set to be scheduled soon. For most fans it will be their first chance to catch MOY in action, as many initially discovered the band during the UK’s initial lockdown with the single ‘No Talk’s The Best Chat’.
