They never expected to be here. Not only did they not expect to last, they expected to be shut down within three songs of their first ever set. It didn\u2019t happen that way.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having done time in cover bands,&nbsp;<strong>MOOT<\/strong>&nbsp;was formed with the intent to play music the band loved and grew up with in venues which were too scared to book anyone who wouldn\u2019t play mainstream standards. It was an experiment to prove that there were music lovers who would come to venues who didn\u2019t want Chisel and Powderfinger but wanted their music &#8211;&nbsp;<strong>The<\/strong><strong>Stooges, MC5, Dead<\/strong><strong>Kennedy\u2019s, Radio Birdman<\/strong>&nbsp;etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Six years and many gigs later, hitting the pubs and clubs and from strong &nbsp;crowds to empty rooms (let\u2019s be honest),&nbsp;<strong>MOOT<\/strong>&nbsp;have become a tight four-piece garage rock band in the spirit of the bands they grew up with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their music is fast and their lyrics are sharp. No subject is above pulling down. This is a band which knows their punters have opinions, &nbsp;a sense of humour, understand sarcasm and are just as frustrated as they are at what is going on. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/mootbook\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/mootbook<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goldenrobotrecords.com\/riot-records\/moot\/\">https:\/\/goldenrobotrecords.com\/riot-records\/moot\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Australian garage punk act\u00a0MOOT\u00a0have released their new single\u00a0\u2018I Hate Hippies\u2019\u00a0on\u00a0Riot Records. \u00a0Driving into the territory&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13273,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23,2],"tags":[1087,1099,290],"class_list":["post-13272","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music-news","category-news","tag-hardcore-punk","tag-moto","tag-punk"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13272","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13272"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13272\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13274,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13272\/revisions\/13274"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13273"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13272"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13272"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13272"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
