Go Go Smear The Poison Ivy

VINYL FORMAT. It has been more than three years since the release of múm's last album, and a lot of water has passed under the bridge. And now, finally, a string of European festival appearances heralds their long-awaited new album, which will be supported by a full USA tour this fall. Go Go Smear The Poison Ivy is a colourful, twitching, playful work of art, full of life-affirming energy.

Exuding an otherworldly, almost magical aura, múm make sonically warm, richly melodic experimental music married effortlessly to a pop sensibility. The band uses an array of instruments (guitars, bass, drums, synths, laptops, cello, accordion, mutated brass, and mouth trumpet, to name a few) alongside crisply-programmed electronic washes, beats and bleeps, blurring the distinction between live band and electronic programming.
