(no title)

Alone in the Moon is a rock band from Budapest, Hungary with grunge, stoner and punk influences. Their songs are about escaping into self-destruction from the ideological chaos of the 2010s. Absolutely recommended if you like the rock music of the 90s and/or you think anything about your generation.
