Riffs aplenty and buckets-full of melodicism

Razorcake review MAGIC OF THE MARKETPLACE: Jealous Moon CD EP

"It’s been a little while since MOTM—now having dropped “Higgins And The” part of their moniker—graced the world with new tunes, and these four tracks provide a reminder of what a solid outfit this is. There are riffs aplenty and buckets-full of melodicism running across the eight minutes here, as the band offers up an upbeat, tidy collection of songs. There’s plenty of experience within this band, with current and ex-members of Erase Today, Sonic Boom Six, and Litterbug, so it’s no surprise to hear well-written and performed tracks. Top of the pops for me would be “Walls,” the longest track here, clocking in at just over three minutes, as I love the guitar on it. Overall, this has got a clean sound which maintains a slight gritty edge, so all in all, I’m happy to have this in my grubby mitts."
