Gonzo's MoonWomb

Gonzo's MoonWomb are a trio from Melbourne, Australia.

Gonzo is a schismatic meld of unique instrumentation, diverse stylistic elements, exploration, experimentation, atonality, unconventional rhythms, aggression juxtaposed with funkiness, and improvisation - fused into a volatile, yet accessible new sound challenging the traditional backwards, narrow constraints of musical definition.

The MoonWomb is the sound of dirty fat angry Bass, filthy electronically contorted and distorted chunky analogue Keyboard, frantic maniacal Trumpet, wrenching screaming Vocals, and cataclysmic Drums - twisting, deviating, contrasting, and interchanging with funkified Organ and Bass, hard-edged Trumpet, grooving beats, heartfelt Vocals, and spoken word in an undefinable organised chaos of sound and noise.

"This band are certainly breaking new ground & can't really be pigeonholed into a particular musical area. It's refreshing to see a band prepared to do something on their own style rather than copying everyone else." - hEARd Magazine

"These guys are out there, and experimental is definitely the right word to describe their style, if not an understatement." - ROYHSDYN

"Most will find 'Gonzo's MoonWomb' at a glance very absurd and strange but look deeper and you will see much more than its abstract surface." - The Bass Player On-Line

"Gonzo's MoonWomb? Progeny of Frank Zappa, perhaps?" ... "who smash away on their drums, trumpet and keyboards as though they loathe them" - Inpress Magazine

"... discover creation, get a life, be born into Gonzo's MoonWomb! 10 out of 10" - The Bass Player On-Line
