With nothing but abstruse details surrounding the debut album from Monsters of Folk, it is nice to finally hear some of the band’s music. Jim James (My Morning Jacket), M. Ward (She & Him), and Conor Oberst (Bright Eyes), worked on this Mike Mogis produced debut album over the past couple of years.

After holding everyone in suspense for some time, Monsters of Folk subsequently revealed the first single from their forthcoming album, which is set for a September 22nd release.

Mute Math’s forthcoming album ‘Armistice’ will be available August 18th

I for one am very excited that the release date of Mute Math’s forthcoming album, ‘Armistice’, has been revealed. The first time I saw Mute Math, I fell mildly in love, and they remain to this day, one of my favorite bands on planet earth. I picked up their self-titled debut album at their show back in 2006, and they have not released another full-length album since then. So needless to say, the anticipation has been building. Well, now myself (and undoubtedly hoards of other) only have to wait a couple more months because Mute Math’s new album is set for an August 18th release, via Teleprompt-Warner Bros.

‘Armistice’ was recorded and produced by Dennis Herring (Elvis Costello, Modest Mouse, the Hives) in New Orleans and in Oxford, Mississippi. The album is a little under 50 minutes and comprised of 11 new tracks (there are 12 tracks but Spotlight was released as an EP). I cannot wait to see them perform new material live.

I do not have any new tracks to stream, however, in case you missed it…

After holing themselves up in the studio with producer Chris Coady (Foals, Grizzly Bear, TV on the Radio, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah’s) for the past several months, the band is ready to unleash their new, fully mastered, sixth full length album which is 50-something odd minutes of musical genius (and an album we CANNOT stop playing over and over). Check out the band in action as they tinker away in the studio and offer fans a sneak peak thru exclusive interviews earlier this year with SPIN, Billboard and Nylon Magazine of the recording process.
