Vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Matt Jones played bass on a number of releases for Amp, as substantially as appearance in Movietone. Bassist Kate Wright also played in Movietone, handling guitars and vocals thither, patch Jones' guitar-playing brother Sam participated in Flying Saucer Attack at times. Besides the more drone-focused aspects or wraithlike minimalism of those groups, Crescent also embraced brawling robust stone tinged with mirky, lo-fi production, for a more than nonrational live. First coming to attention with their debut singles "Lost" and "Sun" on the Planet Punk label, the quartet garnered stateside notice in the mid-'90s with an expanded EP, featuring "Sunday," and the wide Now record album on Atavistic. A follow-up album, Electronic Sound Constructions, was actually a solo effort by Matt Jones, while the band itself wasn't heard from once again on disc until the Gathered Songs compilation unexpectedly emerged in 1999. After qualification a move to Fatcat Records, the chemical group order out By the Roads and the Fields in 2003, and then released Little Waves in July 2007.
