Closure in Moscow (au)

Closure in Moscow are keeping rock traditions alive through sugar-coated candy-coloured tunes that hide a raw hard rock spirit! A wild heart that lays everything bare through emotional and gripping songwriting that spans as many genres as you can count but always stays loyal to rock’s anthemic character. Beneath all the glittery coating there’s a solid rock foundation, which underpins the band’s proggy “escapades” and rose-tinted diversions into pop territory. Self-describing themselves as a “noisy progressive pop rock band with a strawberry twist”, Closure in Moscow stay in character and fuse their powerful rock sound with poppish elements and sing-along moments and on their latest masterpiece “Soft Hell” even “a capella” passages! Their proggier elements paired with Mansour’s powerful vocals complete a mix that is as eclectic as it is catchy and irresistible. The secret to the band’s success is in playfully juxtaposing flowery pop digressions with more angular and muscular hard rock foundations. They sit comfortably in that space between hard and pop rock with a refreshing take on both these classic genres. The multi-faceted multi-layered character of Closure in Moscow’s compositions sets them apart as one of the most distinctive and outrageously fun bands in the modern rock panorama.
