Max Tundra

It's been six long years since Max Tundra released Masted By the Guy at the Exchange. That record made it to the top of my list that year and it's still there. Last week came the new record and it's glorious. In the first half of the record he picks up where he left off. This is the strangest pop music around. As the record progresses we get stuff we've never heard from Max Tundra before. There's his version of a metal track that contains no metal chords but plenty of spirit. The final track moves from Al Green to the Beatles to Max Tundra pure and simple. There's even one of the best glitch/cut up track I've ever heard. There's much more music packed into everything three minutes than you can possibly digest in one sitting, but there absolutely not to listen to this to every day for weeks, so there's no danger of not getting the most out of it.

This is the kind of music that I'd rather folks here than read about. If you look up reviews and interviews you'll learn all about his archaic process of making music, but before you do any of that, you need to get this record. Right now. Stop reading and go shopping.

But not before you listen to this to whet your appetite.
