Matador to release new Mission of Burma album
July 13th, 2009 by Chad Radford in Music news
This morning Matador Records announced that they will release Mission of Burma’s 4th studio full-length, The Sound The Speed, The Light, on Oct. 6.
The album was recorded in Boston with Bob Weston and reportedly takes on a much more spacious sound and dynamic than the slurred but subtle fuzz that enveloped the group’s ‘06 album, The Obliterati.
A 7-inch featuring two non-LP tracks, “Innermost” and “Here It Comes” will be released on Aug. 18 via Matador as well.
In the meantime you can get a sneak peak at what the album has to offer with “1, 2, 3, Partyy!”
If the song’s, clean, clear pop intonations and production qualities are any indication of the album’s direction, than this looks to be a very refined offering that tidies up the noise, while giving a full body to Burma’s signature sound.
