Moonlight Survived is the first and only full-length album by American alternative rock/post-hardcore band Moments in Grace. It was released on compact disc, 12-inch vinyl and digitally by American record labels Atlantic Records and Salad Days Records on August 17, 2004, and includes the single "Stratus", which was pushed to radio stations in June 2004, and music television channels in August 2004.

The album was written from mid-2002 to mid-2003, while the band was still named Postcard Audio, with vocalist, guitarist and keyboardist Jeremy Griffith, guitarist Justin Etheridge, bass guitarist Jake Brown and drummer Brandon Cook.[1] Cook was replaced by Timothy Kirkpatrick in May 2003 and a month later the band was renamed Moments in Grace. Moonlight Survived was recorded over the span of three months, split between June–August 2003 and November 2003, with producer Brian McTernan at Salad Days in Beltsville, Maryland. The recording sessions resulted with sixteen songs, twelve of which appeared on the standard album.

In promotion of the release, Moments in Grace toured the United States and Canada several times between December 2003 and February 2005, accompanied by such bands as My Chemical Romance, Avenged Sevenfold, Finger Eleven, Thrice, Silverstein, Funeral for a Friend, Alexisonfire, From First to Last, Smile Empty Soul, Bayside, Hot Water Music, Darkest Hour, Further Seems Forever, Poison the Well, A Thorn for Every Heart, Steriogram, Thornley, Strata, Brandtson, Planes Mistaken for Stars, The Jealous Sound, Beloved, Zolof the Rock & Roll Destroyer, Noise Ratchet, Rock 'n' Roll Soldiers, Vaux, Engine Down, Statistics, June, Madcap, The Kicks, Don't Look Down and Decahedron. The band also performed on Van's Warped Tour and at notable festivals like Skate and Surf Festival in Asbury Park, New Jersey, The Fest in Gainesville, Florida and the Millennium Music Conference in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

Composition and recording

Moonlight Survived was written while the band was still named Postcard Audio, with vocalist, guitarist, keyboardist and principal songwriter Jeremy Griffith, guitarist Justin Etheridge, bass guitarist Jake Brown and drummer Brandon Cook.[2] On July 2, 2002, shortly after releasing its eponymous debut extended played, Postcard Audio opened for The Liar's Academy and Brandtson at Barnstormer's in Montevallo, Alabama.[3] [4] A month later, in August 2002, The Liar's Academy spent a week recording its extended play, Trading My Life, with record producer Brian McTernan at his Salad Days recording studio in Beltsville, Maryland.[5] [6] While taking a break from tracking, The Liar's Academy guitarist, Matt Smith, was listening to Postcard Audio's extended play when the music caught McTernan's attention. Impressed by Griffith's voice, McTernan, who was then also an A&R representative and artist developer for major record label Atlantic Records, flew down to St. Augustine, Florida to meet with the band and attend one of its shows.[7] [8]

In early November 2002, Postcard Audio began working with McTernan and announced that it would take a hiatus from playing shows to focus on extensive writing for its debut full-length album,[9] hoping to enter Salad Days recording studio in March 2003 (though this was ultimately delayed by several months).[10] By April 2003, the band was nearly done writing its full-length album, having written over thirty songs in the process,[11] [12] and citing influences like Jeff Buckley, U2, Ours, Sunny Day Real Estate, Foo Fighters and Hum. The band recorded demos of the material at Griffith's home studio, The Factory, in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, during most of 2002 and the first half of 2003.

In May 2003, Cook was replaced by former As Friends Rust and Culture drummer Timothy Kirkpatrick.[13] [14] [15] Kirkpatrick was recommended by McTernan, who had heard of the drummer through members of The Liar's Academy's other band, Strike Anywhere; Strike Anywhere had toured twice with As Friends Rust in 2000 and 2001.[16] In late June 2003,[17] [18] Postcard Audio was renamed Moments in Grace; the new name was inspired by lyrics from the song "Drink Deep" by Rites of Spring. The band immediately began tracking thirteen songs for its full-length album, Moonlight Survived, over the span of two months at Salad Days with producer McTernan (though the total number of tracks recorded eventually increased to sixteen during production).[19]

Unhappy with the way the full-length sounded, the band returned to Salad Days in November 2003 to re-record some of the material, record a couple of extra songs, and fully re-mix the release. Moonlight Survived was completed by the end of November 2003, and the band quickly signed with Atlantic Records and McTernan's new Atlantic Records imprint, Salad Days Records,[20] [21] created specifically to release the band's music.[22] [23] The album was originally scheduled for release in May 2004,[24] but it would ultimately be delayed by three months.[25]

Release, packaging and promotion

On December 12, 2003, the band released the extended play, These Days Will Fade, through Salad Days Records.[26] [27] [28] The release included the songs "Stratus" and "Broken Promises", which were scheduled to also appear on Moonlight Survived;[29] [30] and "Curtain Call" and "The Silencing Truth", which were b-sides from the recording session and were announced as exclusive to the release (they would later appear as bonus tracks on the vinyl edition of Moonlight Survived).[31] The extended play was offered as a free download (an idea suggested by McTernan), exclusively through the band's website and through webzine AbsolutePunk. It also included an extensive digital booklet designed by Shelby Cinca.[32] The band later stated in interviews that These Days Will Fade was intended as both an introduction to the band, and a teaser of the forthcoming full-length album. On March 23, 2004, Atlantic Records re-issued These Days Will Fade through all major digital retailers and also pressed a limited amount of promotional compact discs.

Coinciding with a series of shows together, Moments in Grace and Funeral for a Friend teamed up for a split 7-inch vinyl, co-released through Atlantic Records, Salad Days Records, Mighty Atom Records and Infectious Records, on April 20, 2004.[33] [34] [35] Moments in Grace contributed the song "My Dying Day", which was also scheduled to appear on the forthcoming Moonlight Survived.

On June 15, 2004, Atlantic Records and Salad Days Records released "Stratus" as the album's first single, digitally and on compact disc; the release included an exclusive radio edit version of the song. On the same day, the two record labels also released a compact disc sampler, which included all three previously released songs from the band's forthcoming album: "Stratus", "Broken Promises" and "My Dying Day". The sampler managed to reach No. 2 on CMJ New Music Report's Loud College Rock Adds, No. 3 on Loud Rock Crucial Spins Add, and No. 14 on CMJ Top 200 Adds, on June 21, 2004.[36]

On July 17, 2004, Moments in Grace filmed a music video for the lead single "Stratus", with director Laurent Briet in Los Angeles, California.[37] [38] The video premiered on August 12, 2004, five days before Moonlight Survived was released,[39] [40] and later aired on MTV and Fuse.[41] [42] On July 19, 2004, Moments in Grace was invited to MTV's Paramount Plaza studio for a photo shoot and video interview promoting Moonlight Survived.[43]

Moonlight Survived was released on compact disc and double 12-inch vinyl, and was available for download, simultaneously on August 17, 2004, through Atlantic Records and Salad Days Records.[44] In addition to the previously released songs "Stratus", "Broken Promises" and "My Dying Day", the standard album also included "The Patient", "We Feel the Songs", "My Stunning Bride", "Monologue", "Distant and Longing Night", "The Blurring Lines of Loss", "Don't Leave" and "The Past" and "No Angels".[45] The double vinyl edition also included three bonus songs: "Curtain Call" and "The Silencing Truth", both taken from the extended play These Days Will Fade, and "Freedom", which was exclusive to the format. As with all of the band's prior releases, Moonlight Survived's artwork was designed by Shelby Cinca. All pre-orders placed through online retailer Smartpunk received a free copy of the band's split 7-inch vinyl with Funeral for a Friend.[46] [47]

Moonlight Survived peaked to No. 13 on CMJ's Top 200 Adds chart on August 30, 2004,[48] and spent six weeks on CMJ's Radio 200 chart,[49] peaking to No. 109 on October 11, 2004.[50] In early September 2004, the band posted the song "These Days Will Fade", the only remaining unreleased track from Moonlight Survived's sixteen-song recording session, as an exclusive on its PureVolume page.[51] [52] The song "Broken Promises" was also included in the Criterion Games / Electronic Arts racing video game, , released on September 8, 2004.[53] [54]

Touring

In promotion of Moonlight Survived, Moments in Grace began touring full-time, ultimately spending over a year on the road, starting right after the album's recording was completed (nine months before it was released), and lasting six months after its release. The band first toured across the Southern United States, from Florida to California, spanning December 10–17, 2003.[55] The trip culminated with a benefit show at the House of Blues in West Hollywood, California in direct support of Thrice.

Another one-off show paired Moments in Grace with The Starting Line and Park in Tucson, Arizona on October 11, 2004, while the band travelled to meet up its next tour package.[105] [106]
