It is possibly more fun in alternate version land, as alternate universes rarely apologize for their ungroomed natures. Same with us: this band is only occasionally presentable, and while both records have teeth, confessions are probably spit through pointier teeth.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA glorious return to the DIY ethics of their early days, littered with xenophobes with shotguns on the prowl, chancers taking bets, a fluttering albatross mistaken for a seagull, drunks feigning sobriety and a homeless person with a Spiderman mask raising a toast, both moonlight sonatas blossom unashamedly.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fire Records","offers":[{"title":"LP | Rough Trade Exclusive","offer_id":50992520331595,"sku":"2236850","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Unknown_f8d74c6e_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1734616775","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/moonlight-confessions-versions","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
