Bleep

Tokyo based trio Mouse on the Keys return with second album Flowers Of Romance for Mule Musiq. The album has a spontaneous feel throughout, never sticking to one idea for more than a moment but while this could sound off-putting, the skills of the musicians involved keeps it at a daring pace. The piano plays a pivotal role throughout crafting a delicate feel to the urgency of the drums. The group have stated influences on the LP range from Beastie Boys & Napalm Death to Steve Reich and it's easy to hear the fingerprints of each inside the DNA of the music. FOR is part Battles on a classical tip, part GoGo Penguin making field recordings and if that sounds like your kinda of thing we urge you to dive in.
