Singles from Stargazer | ||||
Stargazer is the first studio album by American alternative metal band Moodring.
Songs from the album were released as singles as early as January 2022, however the album itself was first announced in April. [9]
Lead vocalist Hunter Young states:
The song "Xeno (Foreign Love)" deals with breaking up a toxic relationship. [10]
"N.I.K.E", a reference to the song A.D.I.D.A.S. by Korn, concerns a conflict between two pastors attempting to cope with their attraction to each other, at odds with their religious teachings. [10] Young explains:
The album cover features a golden snake moving through rose petals, which is a reference to Young's pet snake David Michael Fassbender. [11] A spider ball python, such snakes suffer from a condition referred to as "spider wobble", resulting in a behaviour known as "stargazing".
An alternative metal album, [2] many tracks also incorporate elements of electronica. [5]
The release of the album was followed by a tour with Cane Hill, VCTMS and Afterlife. [3]
The album received generally very positive reviews. [2] [12] Prelude Press states the album "flows effortlessly from one song to the next without ever feeling repetitive or tired, and by the time it comes to an end, you’ll find yourself dying to listen to it all over again". [13] Boolin Tunes states that it "cements itself as a debut to be proud of and one to return to time and time again". [14]
The sound of the album has seen comparisons to Deftones [2] [4] [12] [14] and Glassjaw. [12] [14]
