Bridging peppy new-wave spirit with a post-punk bustle, “Moment Strike” is a new single from Slow Paced Acting. Inspirations like The Cure and Gary Numan linger enjoyably, as yearning vocals entice alongside a bouncy bass traversal, trickling guitars, and synth adornments. “Warning signal kept me alive,” the vocals let out during an especially melodic sequence, capped off by an ascending synth resonance and spirited vocal worthiness. “Moment Strike” is a fun, throwback charmer from Slow Paced Acting.
