We are loving the first single from Moby\u2019s latest album! The single is called Like a Motherless Child <\/em>and the album, available via Mute on March 2nd<\/sup> is entitled Everything Was Beautiful, And Nothing Hurt. <\/em>Apparently the title is from the sci-fi book Slaughterhouse-Five<\/em> by Kurt Vonnegut. That\u2019s one to add to the reading list I think!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s less than a year since the last Moby album, Long Ambients 1: Calm, Sleep <\/em>came out. Like the ambassador at a reception, he has truly spoilt us lately! He also released a collaborative album More Fast Songs About the Apocalypse<\/em> with the Void Pacific Choir. If you haven\u2019t heard it, it\u2019s definitely worth a listen.<\/p>\n

With a strong trip-hop vibe and gospel undertones, this new album is set to be pretty special. It\u2019s Moby doing what Moby does best.<\/p>\n

    The second single to be released is the first track from the album and is called Mere Anarchy<\/em>. Check out the video on YouTube, it\u2019s a treat! It features Moby and his friend Julie visiting a post-apocalyptic earth with no inhabitants. Creepy! The name of this track is another literary reference, it\u2019s from a poem by WB Yeats called The Second Coming.<\/em><\/p>\n

    Why is Moby called Moby?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Ever wondered why Moby is called Moby? Well, you\u2019re about to find out! His real name is Richard Melville Hall. Melville is rather an odd name, but it wasn\u2019t picked at random to be a bit alternative. He is named after his great great great grand uncle Herman Melville. But why Moby? I can hear you asking, well Herman Melville was the author of the famous novel Moby Dick! So there you go, it all makes sense now!<\/p>\n
