Sonny Moore, former lead singer of the post-hardcore band From First to Last and solo artist Sonny, has found something new once again. This time I think Sonny Moore has found his niche and is comfortable with his current musical situation. Where does someone go in their musical endeavors after leading a progressive post-hardcore band to great success? Into electronica dance beats of course. A weird transition? Yes. The right one and does it work for him? Absolutely. Apparently Sonny Moore has always had a passion for electronica music but has now turned that passion into a full on addiction. Be sure to listen to “Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites” and “With You, Friends(Long Drive)” my favorite track and extended version of the song performed on Skrillex’s EP My Name Is Skrillex.
