MoMo was spawned when Rob Mc Lennan, Vocals / Guitars (No Friends of Harry, Doris), Andrew Cleland, Drums / Backing Vox (The Kerels, Zen Arcade, Squeal), and Rusty Stanley, Bass (Simple English) were at a gig watching ‘The English Beat’, and decided to get together as a three-piece to make an uncompromising, dark, swampy, gritty record grounded in places and times they’d all shared.MoMo’s debut “Dark City” is a dark, angry, but much-loved city that has created a unique culture born out of the times. Although the dark days of 80s and 90s were the worst days to grow up in South Africa, they also became the best of times for many, creating an amazing, rebellious, alienated sub-culture that crept out into the city streets at night in Johannesburg, and throughout South Africa. It mutated and grew, manipulated by the sociopolitical environment enveloping us all at that period in South Africa. Bands emerged, and dark, grimy clubs came and went. Life-time friends and relationships were forged forever. It felt like us against the rest of the world. A group of people bonded by the times and circumstances, and vomited out into creativity in the form of music, art, writing, style, politics and culture that merged into one big, very dysfunctional family. That era in Joburg’s lingers in the city still today. Many have left, but many still remain.
Inspired by Johannesburg, “Dark City” sounds, tastes and smells like the city; concrete, tar, petrol-fumes, bullet ridden, pock-marked buildings, and a dash of corruption, fear, love, rage and anger. “Dark City” was recorded at ‘Club Doris’, situated in the heart of Kensington, JHB, South Africa.
