The first new recordings in 22 years from avant-rock titans Mission of Burma. A work of staggering complexity, brimming with all the raw power of their '80s releases, while revealing tones, textures, and lyrical themes unimaginable the first time around. One of the most forward-thinking American bands, Burma have been covered by REM, Moby, Blur, and others, and helped shape the sounds of hardcore, indie rock, and emo. They're part of the Velvet Underground, MC5, Television, and Joy Division pantheon. "ONoff   [ read more ]

Their third full-length studio album proper might be the most aggressive, raw, and challenging in the band's storied career. It's as relentless and engulfing an album as Vs. some 24 years ago.
