Download: Pond - Moth Wings
'Moth Wings' is the second single from Pond's fourth record 'Beard Wives Denim'. The entire album was recorded over two weeks in a ramshackle farmhouse in Western Australia; 'Moth Wings' is said to have, quite literally, broken the bands 'mid-recording cabin fever', and it's easy to see why.

The band's fourth album, Beard, Wives, Denim is an audio diary of ten friends' strange, terrible and blissful time in the country trying in vain to be a wholesome family band. It sounds just like it, distorted and woozy and fractured and ultimately nostalgic and loving.

Pre-order now, Mod Shop, JB Hi Fi.
