Play Dead

MUTEMATH

A high-octane collision of vintage analog synthesizers and virtuosic, syncopated drumming. Restless, soulful, and meticulously produced art-rock.

September 8, 2017 · Hostess Entertainment Unlimited

Find on Amazon

A high-tension blend of restless kinetic energy and soulful, nostalgic reflection.

Moments Worth Listening For
The explosive drum break halfway through Hit Parade that feels like a controlled demolition
The way the bassline in Break the Fever locks into a hypnotic, disco-tinged groove
The sprawling, psychedelic outro of Achilles Heel where the synths dissolve into a warm haze
