PRESENTS:
THE EDGY SOUND OF MOViNG CASTLES AND THEiR LATEST RELEASE TWiN DAGGERS NOVEMBER 11, 2011 - They may
call themselves MOVING CASTLES—and no doubt they’ll be out touring the
U.S. soon—but for now,
the high energy art-pop influenced band is firmly planted on the
thriving indie
scene in Austin, Texas. Funny thing
about the city
where South By Southwest takes over every year, though. Frontman,
guitarist and
main songwriter JOHN ERIC laments in the infectious, biting tune
“Warhol” that
everyone there keeps up appearances by acting disinterested in
everything; it’s
a whole culture that’s partying but not having fun doing it. It’s not
up to one
powerhouse band to change a this ingrained mindset, but if anyone can
inspire
intense passion live and in the studio, it’s ERIC and his cohorts
DANIEL ZANE
(guitar/vocals), MARSHALL GARRETT BERRY (guitar/vocals) and drummer
NICK
COGDILL. MOVING CASTLES draws a provocative line from their song
“HUSH MY BONES” to make the title of their debut 5-track EP as cutting
edge as they are:
TWIN DAGGERS. Drawing on
the spirit of
the pop-punk music he listened to growing up and taking its energy to a
more
intelligent level, Eric calls MOVING CASTLES’ vibe slightly snarky,
sometimes
aggressive pop with very personal lyrics. “This EP shows what
we can do on our own with absolutely no
budget,” he says. “It shows that I can write and record great songs
without the
help of an outside producer. I intentionally left some rough edges on
this
recording. We wanted it to sound like a band playing together in a room
with a
lot of energy.![]() YOU
