Nottingham’s own alt-rock troublemakers Content Provider aren’t here to play it safe — and their new single ‘Moon’s Gravity’ proves it. The trio of Tim Brudenell (vocals, guitar), Erfan Ghafouri (bass), and Michael Brown (drums) have always thrived on chaos, but this might just be their most unhinged and ambitious statement yet.
Built on a backbone of funk-loaded basslines, serrated post-punk riffs and skin-flaying drums, ‘Moon’s Gravity’ is a shape-shifting beast. It lulls you in with ghostly guitars and breathy vocals before detonating into a cosmic meltdown of distortion and fury. Think prog-sized ambition colliding head-on with the sweaty snarl of alt-rock grit.
Lyrically, it’s as unsettling as the soundscape it rides on — imagery of space missions gone wrong and planes plummeting from the sky feed into a meditation on inevitability and dread.
And if you’ve caught Content Provider live on Nottingham’s underground circuit, you’ll know this isn’t just posturing. Their gigs are unpredictable freefalls where songs mutate and collapse in real time — and here, they’ve bottled that chaos. ‘Moon’s Gravity’ doesn’t just hint at their power, it drags you through it headfirst.
Coming hot off last year’s Exposure Complete, this track isn’t just a teaser for the new album — it’s a warning shot. Dark, volatile, and impossible to pin down, Content Provider are fast becoming one of the UK’s most essential underground exports.
