Mew‘s original guitarist Bo Madsen left the group in 2015, but Mew continued on and now they’re set to release a new album. It’s the followup to 2015’s very solid (and kinda underrated) +/-, and it’s called Visuals. The new LP drops April 28 via Play It Again Sam.
The lead single is “Carry Me to Safety,” which is a very nice dose of their dreamy pop, and a bit more concise than some of the proggy stuff they’ve done in recent years. Check it out below.
Tracklist:
01 Nothingness and No Regrets
