New Mew Video - "Repeaterbeater"

When the video boasting a sentient-rocks-that-shoot-laser-beams narrative for Mew's "Introducing Palace Players" hit the web, the band helpfully added we shouldn't feel "like an idiot" for not understanding any of it. Which at worst was patronizing ("you're probably just not...  CONTINUE READING NEW MEW VIDEO - "REPEATERBEATER"»

New Mew Video - "Introducing Palace Players"

The stuttering and dreamy No More Stories... standout "Introducing Palace Players" gets a Martin De Thura-directed video that incorporates frogs, horses, a forest, one possessed car, and lots of floating, sentient rocks (that can shoot laser beams obvs) into one...  CONTINUE READING NEW MEW VIDEO - "INTRODUCING PALACE PLAYERS"»

New Mew - "Repeaterbeater"

As we've mentioned, Mew's new album title, which we're shortening to No More Stories... to avoid obnoxiousness, is in fact a full-on (and pretty bad) poem. Wouldn't you know it, the collection's first single "Repeaterbeater" also rhymes. Wacky Danes. You've...  CONTINUE READING NEW MEW - "REPEATERBEATER"»

New Mew - "Introducing Palace Players"

The album with the unbelievably poetic title (srsly) is introducing itself with, fittingly, "Introducing Palace Players." Mew aren't hiding the fact that they are Mew -- androgynously porcelain vocally, stuttered up and syncopated in the undercurrent, lilting and dreamy overtop,...  CONTINUE READING NEW MEW - "INTRODUCING PALACE PLAYERS"»

Spambots Use Mew References

Like most of you, I waste countless hours (okay, minutes) every day, 'junk'ing e-mails my spam filter misses. Lately, I've been getting a ton of Critical Investor Alerts, which I guess slip through with their embedded graphics. Check out how...  CONTINUE READING SPAMBOTS USE MEW REFERENCES»

Acoustic Mew

Yes, we've known about Mew for years too. But opening for Bloc Party has brought the dramatic Denmark rockers unprecedented stateside exposure, and we're happy to stay on the blogger bandwagon that's keeping the buzz alive. The band dropped by...  CONTINUE READING ACOUSTIC MEW»

Mew In Review

Turns out Under Byen isn’t the only Band to Watch from Denmark. Meet Mew, the latest Nordic-export-cum-blogger-fave. Driving tom-tom crescendos and dramatic, soaring vocal-and-piano lines recall Sigur Rós, but it's the prog-influenced drum-bass hookups and quick-turning passages that make Mew...  CONTINUE READING MEW IN REVIEW»
