At the Moonbase, the fourth full-length album from Slaughter Beach, Dog, is a return to form for Philadelphia bandleader Jake Ewald. Written and recorded alone at home and at The Metal Shop, Ewalds East Kensington recording studio, the album tracks an exercise in solitary production not unlike Slaughter Beach, Dogs 2016 debut Welcome or 2017s Motorcycle.JPG. On the heels of 2019s Safe and Also No Fear, Ewalds latest offering brings expanded arrangements and sharpened storytelling as he taps into salad days over slacker rock (Do You Understand), the dark grooves of seedy city life (Song for Oscars), and even a barroom-piano-driven escapade through the great American bedroom (A Modern Lay). At the Moonbase arrives March 26th on Lame-O Records.
