Ten years later, a rendezvous with indi-rock band Luna opens summer season at Mass MoCA

Storied indie-rock quartet Luna — led by Dean Wareham, seen most recently at MASS MoCA as one-half of Dean & Britta — returns after a 10-year hiatus. With its 1999-era lineup (Wareham, Britta Phillips, Sean Eden, and Lee Wall), the band sounds as strong as ever and is back with a sweet vengeance to open our summer season on Saturday, May 28, at 8pm, in the Hunter Center.

Luna digital re-issures and bonus tracks out now 2.8.12

Wednesday, February 8th, 2012

Luna digital re-issues and bonus tracks out now on Double Feature Records:

Free download – “Neon Lights” (Kraftwerk cover):

For the first time ever the final three releases by NYC quartet Luna are available on iTunes (also on Amazon, Emusic, Rhapsody and Bandcamp. Originally recorded for Jetset Records, the three titles are Romantica (2002), Rendezvous (2005) and the mini-LP Close Cover Before Striking (2002). Each album includes new bonus tracks; unreleased B-sides and covers including Led Zeppelin’s “Dancing Days.”

Romantica adds 3 tracks; the never-released “Mystic Rattlers” and alternate versions of “Lovedust” and “Renée is Crying.”

Close Cover Before Striking is expanded from 7 tracks to 9 with the addition of   Led Zeppelin’s “Dancing Days” and Alice Cooper’s “Only Women Bleed,” to complement Luna’s versions of the Stones’ “Waiting on a Friend” and Kraftwerk’s “Neon Lights.”

Luna’s final album Rendezvous adds 5 bonus tracks: the rare German 7” “Eyes in My Smoke,” three unreleased studio demos and a re-mix of “Speedbumps” by Lee Wall.

Romantica rides the same relaxed-to-languorous groove Luna has spent a decade perfecting, kissed by Wareham’s dry martini voice and drenched in his and Sean Eden’s liquid guitars. – Michelangelo Matos, 2002

Luna’s allegedly last studio album (Rendezvous) is astonishing, their best since 1995’s Penthouse. The band has arrived at a pleasant, Television-on-Xanax variant of indie-rock that’s smart, sexy, and sophisticated.  — Mike McGonigal

Luna Vinyl for Record Store Day

On Record Store Day (April 21, 2012) Double Feature Records will release limited edition (1,000 copies)

180-gram vinyl LPs of Luna’s Romantica and Rendezvous albums. Mastered by Scott Hull at Masterdisk, NYC, we just got test pressings in; they sound great and the images by Chas Ray Krider and Steve Ellis look beautiful too. These albums were originally on compact disc only; this is the first time they’ve been on vinyl. Each LP will come with a card for a free download of the entire album plus the new bonus material we released digitally a few months ago.

As this is a record-store-day exclusive, we will not be selling the LPs online, they are only available in stores. Click here to find a participating store where you can get your Luna vinyl:

There is more Luna vinyl to come later in 2012 — Bewitched will get its first-ever vinyl release on the Gotta Groove label. Release date not yet confirmed but it will be early this summer. Also in the pipeline though likely not till 2013 — vinyl for Penthouse.
