Kestrels' "The Moon Is Shining Our Way" Feels Like the 90s in the Best Way

It's like Billy Corgan, before he lost his goddamn mind.

Man, remember the 90s? It's okay if you don't, because all you have to do is walk down the street and you'll see a bunch of people wearing mom jeans and crop tops. And we're cool with this trend because, hey, let's face it, the 90s were pretty dope—especially the music. But like most trends, there are a lot of knuckleheads trying to recreate what it was like to listen to Mazzy Star in 1993. Most of 'em suck at it, but Kestrels, a Canadian fuzz-pop trio, does not. The band's new single, "The Moon Is Shining Our Way," which Noisey is premiering below, sounds like a lost B-side from the Smashing Pumpkins. It's fuzzy and dude's voice echoes Billy Corgan, before he lost his goddamn mind.
