Mute Math

Yesterday was new release day in the record industry. Each Tuesday, the varied music moguls dispense with their often ill-invested A & R dollars, a seemingly endless supply of musical clutter to an unsuspecting and more increasingly unconcerned populace. January 30, 2008 was not a typical day, however (at least from my humble vantage point). 

Teleprompt and Warner Brothers Records (what's left of it) released Mute Math's  Flesh and Bones Electric Fun (Live), a companion CD for the identically titled, equally entertaining, concert DVD. The album is available at all of the usual outlets and should be a seriously considered expenditure. Mute Math's first self-titled, full-length album was released in the fall of 2006 and the band has been touring nearly each and every day since. Not only is the music next to fabulous on all of their recordings, as each member of the band is an extremely proficient musician, but the live show is a nearly religious experience (my fourth time will occur in late February). The Flesh... concert album would be a worthy addition to any CD collection, so get out there an buy it!
