More Mourn Music
Looks like the Mourn press cycle is in full swing, with another single coming a week after the last one just popped up. This time around, the young Spaniards seem a little bit more rambunctious, which definitely has my ears perked back. There’s a bit of seeming animosity built into the band’s self-described “poem of hope,” loosely influenced by William Blake. Their newest album, Ha Ha He, is just around the corner, with June 3rd set as the release date via Captured Tracks.

MOURN is a group of four youngsters who hail from Catalonia, and are on the way to releasing their sophomore effort. They’ve got a new single for you to jam and find out why you should be in love with their sound if you haven’t already been. “Storyteller” is a fine example of a guitar-driven grower– the sound is pretty big from the start, which may have you wondering how it could possibly get much bigger. But it does– those guitars seem to get louder and the drums more explosive and present in the mix. What finally escalates the song into a bit more punk than rock is the raw way that the vocals evolve into a scream near the end. Make sure you listen and get excited for Ha, Ha, He. which is out June 3rd via Captured Tracksand that you can preorder
