Mission of Burma Sign to Fire Records: New Album Due This Summer
In late January, Mission of Burma severed their ties with independent label Matador, home to Sonic Youth, Fucked Up, and Stephen Malkmus. The post-punk rockers have now signed to another heavy-hitter indie label, Fire Records. With a world-wide release deal on the books, Mission of Burma are currently in the studio working on their 5th LP (4th post-reunion). The album, reportedly “their most ambitious, progressive and vibrant recording yet,” has a tentative release date set for July 10th.
