During an interview, guitarist Al Schnier was asked to describe Moe
for those who have never heard their music: "It's an amalgamation of a
wide variety of the history of rock, all regurgitated and recycled
through the eyes, ears, hands, whatever of the guys in our band and all
of that with a sense of adventure, a sense of humor, also a constant
desire to push the envelope. All in this arena of taking chances,
improvising live, and making things up on the spot.
