Smile Radio’s Song Of The Week – ‘Lust for Blood’ by Luna Kiss

Luna Kiss are a rock band from Coventry City, UK. Completed by Wil Russell (singer guitarist), Chris Butler (guitarist), Tommy Ogilvie (Bass guitarist) and James Pedley (drummer), the band arm themselves with a latitude of gritty riffs, razor-sharp dynamics and powerful vocal hooks. The band seem to have discovered a new musical sweet spot, where simplicity and intricacy collide.

Luna Kiss have released several E.Ps to date including ‘Conjure and Sin’ (2013) and ‘Gravity’ (2015) but it is only in 2019 that the Coventry quartet’s extraordinary, amorphous vision has truly come into sharp focus. With influences taken from all over the musical spectrum, Luna Kiss exhibit an admirably stoic refusal to be pinned down to one genre. The bands debut album ‘Following Shadows’, released in July of 2019, was recorded with esteemed producer John Mitchell (Enter Shikari/Architects) at the controls, and has pulled off the neat trick of being both highly distinctive, fresh and perfectly in tune with the ongoing resurgence of visionary rock music. The album has been received positively with plays on BBC Radio 1’s rock show and BBC introducing, classic rock magazine dubbed the album “Broodingly gnarly-alt rock”. Luna Kiss are currently working on a new record, set for release in 2020
