Saw some great news yesterday that múm (pronounced "moom") is releasing a new album, Smilewound in less than 3 months! The new album has eleven tracks, one of which features Kylie Minogue. I absolutely love these guys and have been listening to them for at least ten years now, since my dear friend Marielle introduced me to them in our early college days. Generally labeled as IDM (Intelligent Dance Music), their catalog of sounds spans from beautiful to quirky. The Icealandic band formed in 1997; their first album, Flugmaður was released back in 1999, and the band has released six other albums, three EPs, and a number of singles. múm's sound has changed over the years, particularly with the band seeing some members come and go. Despite their flux of sound, they always please and I'm very excited to hear this new track, and am looking forward to the whole album September sixth!
