Moby has once again conjured into reality a collection of heartachingly beautiful, tender yet-defiant songs, made in collaboration with uniquely talented, soulfully aware, other-worldly vocalists. All the songs are love letters to the unrestricted and enchanting music scene of late ‘70s, early ‘80s New York that shaped Moby as a musician.

Since 2014, the SoundCloud Rap pioneers have prolifically shared their distinctive fusion of rap, punk, and trap with audiences worldwide. On New World Depression, the duo’s raw, unfiltered lyrics serve as a gritty narrative of personal turmoil, substance abuse, and the struggle for authenticity in a world that often feels cold and indifferent.

The beloved hyperliterate folk-rockers are back with their first new album in six years. As It Ever Was, So It Will Be Again is filled with semaphores of mutual recognition for our fraught times and faint hope-- punchy, pithy gems of reflections on mortality and loneliness, longing and cynicism, expectation and unease.
