Which at worst was patronizing ("you're probably just not... CONTINUE READING NEW MEW VIDEO - "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"»

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,...

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...
