Moondog was a side project of the NYHC band Gorilla Biscuits. Started in 1989 by Walter Schreifels, he wanted to sing for a band after spending years writing for the Gorilla Biscuits. Moondog was a short lived project which only saw a few recording sessions and a demo. In 2006 Anthology Recordings released a remastered version of all the songs written by the band in the short period they were active.
