Monster Movie (band)
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 235: malformed pattern (missing ']'). Monster Movie is a British dream pop band originally formed by Christian Savill and Sean Hewson in 1989.[1]
The band reformed in 1999, with Rachel Goldstar. In 2009, Ryan Graveface and Sophie Pittaway made recording contributions. In 2011, seeking to do more live performances, Gregg Cox and Sam Williams joined on bass and drums, respectively.
Savill previously played as guitarist in shoegazing band Slowdive, until he left shortly before they changed musical direction and became Mojave 3. Both Savill and Hewson had played together in the pre-Slowdive band Eternal. They released one single on Sarah Records in 1990.
In September 2009, Monster Movie announced the completion of their album Everyone Is A Ghost. The album was released by Graveface Records in March 2010.[2] As of August 2015, the band have 543.1K scrobbles and 37.7K listeners at last.fm.[3] Along with occasional radio airplay on Seattle's KEXP, DJ John Richards described their debut album as "very beautiful, jangly atmospheric pop featuring smoothly strummed guitar."[4] The band also has a presence on myspace.com, with community uploaded music at youtube.com.
