Spooky no. 13 for Ghost Driver in Nightshift’s top tracks of the year

Nightshift Dec 2019 top 25 - number 13 MATM

Moogieman songs have made into Nightshift Magazine‘s top 25 tracks of the year for the last 3 years. This year, Ghost Driver, the new single featuring all of the Masochists has climbed higher than ever before to 13th place.

Released on Halloween, is this placement the result of malign forces at work in East Oxford, or even the result of satanic rituals and a summoning at the Moogieman commune, or just coincidence?

Look forward to more esoteric pronouncements from the band in 2020.

What the periodicals said about the new Moogieman album.

Nightshift
Issue 264, July 2017

Moogieman might yet end up enjoying the accolade of being the last ever artist to kick off the Oxford Punt and his 2016 opening set at the Purple Turtle remains a favourite memory of that May evening. The bulk of the intervening year has seen him tinker with the finishing touches to this album. (more…)
