His ambling, guitar-powered indie songs often progress a little more like classic rock or even rootsy jam band tunes, and they reached their highest form on lengthy albums where they could take their time finding the groove. Viles 2022 effort (Watch My Moves) was his fourth consecutive album with a run time over an hour long, so it follows that auxiliary collection Back to Moon Beach is presented as an EP but closes in on an hour itself with just nine miscellaneous tracks. Collected from various sessions that date back to 2019, the songs largely fit into the constant river of hazy emotions that Viles music always returns to. The first third of the album -- \"Another Good Year for the Roses,\" \"Touched Somethin (Caught a Virus),\" and the title track -- all stroll by at similar relaxed tempos with the kind of minimal effort in regard to structural complexity and vocal performance that Vile has made his calling card. Cate Le Bons production assistance on \"Another Good Year for the Roses\" injects the song with extra pop bounce as well as some experimental coloration. \"Blues Come for Some\" is a hiss-coated piano ballad, while the moody, somewhat country-intoned twang of \"Tom Pettys Gone (But Tell Him I Asked for Him)\" or the drum machine-driven \"Like a Wounded Bird Trying to Fly\" are about as lively as Back to Moon Beach gets. The collection is rounded out by a cover of Wilcos \"Passenger Side\" from their 1995 debut, A.M., a take on Bob Dylans Christmas tune \"Must Be Santa\" (a wholesome holiday song made extra cute here by backup vocals from Viles daughters), and an alternate version of (Watch My Moves) track \"Cool Water.\" Its another page in Viles ongoing catalog of daydreams and stoned musings, in its best moments reaching the same levels of quality as his fully considered albums. ~ Fred Thomas\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Another good year for the roses\u003cbr\u003e2.Touched somethin (caught a virus)\u003cbr\u003e3.Back to Moon Beach\u003cbr\u003e4.Like wounded bird trying to fly\u003cbr\u003e5.Blues come for some\u003cbr\u003e6.Tom Petty’s gone (but tell him i asked for him)\u003cbr\u003e7.Must Be Santa\u003cbr\u003e8.Passenger side\u003cbr\u003e9.Cool Water\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Verve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47717813256481,"sku":"602458439021","price":18.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/602458439021.jpg?v=1703434879","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/de-de\/products\/602458439021","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
