about

‘Hurry Up and Wait’ is The Lunar Towers’ debut EP consisting of four melodic, garage pop songs including its lead single ‘Southern Love.’

The EP’s opening track ‘Plastic Glass Towers,’ blasts through the speaker with a fast-paced, jangling energy right from the off and sets the tone perfectly for the record. This infectious, hook-filled three and a half minute pop song portrays the ever-changing social conditions of London, with Joe on lead vocals and Rob delivering some ethereal harmonies.

Next comes ‘Pillar 2 Post,’ with Rory on lead vocals and Rob on backing vocal duty. The song’s lyrics explore a broken relationship between two people and how someone can move from blindness to forgiveness over time and gain a deeper understanding of pain passed down through generations. This track stands out for its thundering rhythm section, effervescent lead guitar and huge chorus which boasts a powerful blend of Rory and Rob’s vocals.

The third song on the EP is the previously released single ‘Southern Love,’ which maintains the brightness and pace, delivering wonderful lead vocals from Rob, complemented by backing from Joe and Rory. A real highlight here is the song’s shift into an unexpected coda section which serves as an irresistible dopamine hit and sing-along for the listener.

The EP concludes with a slight change of pace as ‘Back To You,’ delivers dreamier, laid back guitars, walking bass lines and delicate lead vocals from Joe, while still packing a punch at the very end. This track contains many great moments, at times reminiscent of songs from The Velvet Underground and Richard Hawley, while the lyrics centre on the ruminations of someone in a relationship and how romantic and spiritual connections can be lost and refound.

The cover artwork for ‘Hurry Up and Wait,’ continues the collage theme developed collectively by the band for their previous three singles. These striking images have added a vivid framework of intrigue and beauty to the group’s releases and the artwork for their debut EP is no different. The collaged cover inspired by a convergence of the sacred refuge of home and the profane yet wondrous nature of the city streets, provides a bold and thought-provoking sleeve which mirrors deeply the character of the songs within it.
