Mt Fog Drop Slowly Morphing
Somewhere in the realm between thumping post-punk and artier brands of pop lives Mt. Fog and their new record, Ultraviolet Heart Machine. I’ve been pumping up this new single, “Slowly Morphing,” which, to be fair, sort of sounds otherworldly…there’s not too much that really sounds like what they’re offering. There’s this frantic riot grrrl sensation to the thundering vocal delivery, but even there, you can hear acts like Life Without Buildings or even Bjork channeling similar eerie vocals. You’ve got to give the rhythm section props here too, as the thumping bass line and snapping cymbal hits really give the track life and allow Carolyn B all the room she needs to wriggle into your earholes. You can grab the new record on September 17th via Ghost Mountain Records.
