Minneapolis-based quartet Night Moves returned from the COVID-forced break with unfinished business. The band’s new EP, The Redaction, is a short, melancholic listen packed with big pop hooks and American twang. The EP, which marks an evolution for the band, opens with “Fallacy Actually,” a “dense cosmic romp” full of layered synth, high harmonica, and soft flute. The stand-out track, “As Innocent Looking As Candy,” is a timely tune that pairs upbeat tempos with thought-provoking lyrics that examine gun violence.
