Atlantic heavy sludgy rock house MOON DESTROYS (featuring current and former members of Torche, Abrams and Royal Thunder) release their new studio album "OMNI" on Blues Funeral Recordings and today present their electrifying new video "Invasion".
MOON DESTROYS blast forth with their new studio album OMNI, a shimmering blend of post-grunge, riff-doom and driving psychedelia that encapsulates the expansive soundscapes of their previous album She Walks by Moonlight into more focused and immediate cuts, delivering the breadth of the band's genre-pushing abilities in hook-driven, quickfire fashion.
With founding members Juan Montoya (ex-Torche) and Evan Diprima (Gold Pyramid, ex-Royal Thunder), as well as new lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Zach Amster (Abrams) at the helm, the thunderous trio is ready to enter a new chapter by unleashing their infectious brand of heaviness upon the world. Don't miss their latest videos for Flowers / Missing Wish / My Eyes.

Formed by legendary guitarist Juan Montoya (a founding member of Torche) and drummer Evan Diprima (Gold Pyramid, Royal Thunder), MOON DESTROYS released their first EP Maiden Voyage in 2020. The 5-song debut featured contributions from Troy Sanders (Mastodon) and Bryan Richie (The Sword) and laid a foundation that would come fully into focus in April 2025, when the band was thrust into the limelight supporting Elder just as they were self-releasing their debut full-length She Walks By Moonlight. This shimmering blend of post-rock, riff-doom and shoegazy psychedelia stood as a cinematic and otherworldly journey from a band who breeze into the environs of My Bloody Valentine, The Cult, The Jesus and Mary Chain, and Ride.
