Not so much underrated as unheard, Moose grew up in Britain's distortion-heavy shoegazing movement of the early '90s but soon shed the fuzzy
wash of their compatriots to embrace a clean, acoustic-based style -- inspired by '60s icons Burt Bacharach and Tim Buckley as well as jangle
merchants like the Byrds and R.E.M. -- that still relied on the intense guitar effects which characterized the band's early works. Moose was
formed in early 1990 by the songwriting team of Kevin (K.J.) McKillop and Russell Yates, plus drummer Damien Warburton and bassist Jeremy Tishler.
