The Moon! The Moon!

Johnny And The Moon - When You're All Alone [mp3]

Johnny And The Moon is Dante DeCaro, and Dante DeCaro is part of Wolf Parade. These, his solo songs, do not sound much like Wolf Parade. Johnny And The Moon forgoes the intensity, opting instead for a loose, grinning sound. "When You're All Alone" shambles and rambles, a mountain music jukebox playing Dylan, drunk. DeCaro sings weary through a smile, his friends and his instruments don't even bother, bouncing happy and yelling happier.

Johnny And The Moon - Kid Heaven [mp3]

The most spaced of the three, "Kid Heaven" makes for a wonderful dream transition, it's pure air. "When the morning tore the skyline/ I was counting stars from death-light/ When the range was black and white/ We were ghosts." And so it goes.

Johnny And The Moon - Johnny Meets The Moon [mp3]

RIYL moonshine from the still, porches and banjos, the moon (natch).
