Review

'Hello, Shut Up' is the third album from Moly. It starts off with 'There Goes the Sun', which is like the Velvet Underground's 'Sunday Morning', but instead performed on a loop and instrumental. 'Time on My Own' is like a vocal version of the previous track, but with a more dramatic edge. It is relaxing although in a moody way. 'Violine' is more experimental and begins sounding like a lo-fi Bjork. It becomes more trippy and ends sounding like an edgy the Chameleons. 'The Holding Cell' has soft beat and vocal. It recalls Slowdive but without their distortion. 'This is All a Dream' is a distorted instrumental which sounds like Mojave 3 on downers experimenting with effect peddles. 'The Shadows Aspect' is as Gothic as it is title sounds and sounds like an instrumental film music soundtrack. 'The Last Night' sounds like a lighter iLiKETRAiNS, but without the vocals. 'Surrounded by 9s' is like a very moody Muse or Radiohead, but with a Cure quality to it. 'The Savage Parade' and 'One Million Tears' are both atmospheric and moody instrumentals, while 'No More Useless Killing', a bonus track, is sinister in tone and has a hard drumming rhythm.
