On their self-titled debut EP, Tiny Moth- born from the creative mind of multi-instrumentalist Doug Rimington and the dynamic vocal power of Jess Lambert- offer up a small but devastatingly impactful EP that pulses with raw passion and spectacular metal weight.
Rimington, known for projects like Fury of a Dying Planet and Heart Through Sacrifice, fuses crunchy, down-tuned guitars with moody synth flourishes, all while honouring a love for analogue warmth and visceral texture. Inspired in part by a little rescue cat named Moth, these tracks are anything but gentle- this is a ferocious, genre-bending creation that lands somewhere between metalcore, progressive rock, and experimental alt-metal.
Jess Lambert’s vocals are the true standout here. Her uncanny ability to move effortlessly from smooth, ghostly melodies to gut-wrenching screams makes each song a dynamic emotional journey. On ‘Look At Me Lyrics’, ‘Break Down The Walls’ and ‘Your Rage’, Lambert’s lyrical and melodic vision cuts through the dense instrumentals like a blade.
The instrumental interlude acts as a quiet breath- an eerie moment of calm before the explosive finale. By the time the final track arrives, clocking in at a cinematic six minutes, Tiny Moth have fully transformed, closing the EP in a cathartic blaze that leaves you wanting more.
Produced with meticulous care by Rimington and mixed and mastered by Matt Bew at Whitehouse Studios, the EP feels meticulously sculpted. There’s a true sense of collaboration and wild creative energy woven into every measure.
Tiny Moth’s debut is hypnotic- with Lambert’s haunting vocals guiding you through each shifting landscape. For fans of Deftones-inspired electronics, crushing riffs, and emotional extremes, this record is your must-listen. It’s clear that Tiny Moth are only just beginning their metamorphosis.
