I do really like this record, but I never really got into it. I should really give it another go, I suppose.

Proclaimed his MySpace blog in May of 2006:

"My new record will contain around ten brand new songs, but thanks to my laboriously luddite working methods it's taking me anything up to three months just to record one track. Domino will be releasing this LP; this might happen as early as this year, but then again, what's the rush?

That said, I'm deliriously excited about these new songs. They make everything else I've ever recorded sound more insignificant and ordinary. I really should spend less time on Myspace and get them finished."

Fingers crossed. I was traveling this summer and had only a half-dozen albums with me on cassette. MBGATE soundtracked a disproportionate share of my bus rides and never got old.

Dominique, Saturday, 2 August 2008 18:19 (fifteen years ago) link

Totally great. Awe-inspiring. Can't stop listening to it.

Owen Pallett, Saturday, 2 August 2008 19:42 (fifteen years ago) link

yeah

I know, right?, Saturday, 2 August 2008 19:42 (fifteen years ago) link

Is it similar in style to the last one? How about some details?

Mark Rich@rdson, Saturday, 2 August 2008 20:43 (fifteen years ago) link

It sounds like 'Steppin' Out' played at 45 rpm.

Owen Pallett, Sunday, 3 August 2008 01:24 (fifteen years ago) link

very excited for this

Max Tundra poos FRAGRANT SPRING RAINSTORMS

nabisco, Monday, 4 August 2008 17:44 (fifteen years ago) link

'"Parallax Error Beheads You" will be released by Domino on 13th October this year,' says the email update.

Real title? No idea. Made me laugh though. Well, smirk in an office-inappropriate sort of way. Excited by the prospect of finally having new Max Tundra in my life!

a passing spacecadet, Thursday, 7 August 2008 12:34 (fifteen years ago) link

two weeks pass...

http://www.myspace.com/maxtundra - new song "A Truce" is lovely.

Doctor Casino, Sunday, 24 August 2008 18:12 (fifteen years ago) link

ha nothing else sounds like max tundra, maybe "one size fits all" zappa--

"a truce" is great

cutty, Sunday, 24 August 2008 18:25 (fifteen years ago) link

Note: "A Truce" isn't a "new song," really -- it's from that comp of musicians doing David Shrigley items, not a dribble from new-album stuff.

It is pretty great, though, yes.

nabisco, Sunday, 24 August 2008 20:48 (fifteen years ago) link

A song that kinda reminds me of Max Tundra...

Elma Mayer 'My First Kazoo' from the 1985 comp 'a beginner's guide to COMA'

This was posted on Mutant Sounds, but there's still cheap (and sealed!) copies available for just $10 on the Rotary Totem website.

gnarly sceptre, Monday, 25 August 2008 18:01 (fifteen years ago) link

Note: "A Truce" isn't a "new song," really

Oh. Well. I liked it anyway!
