Many of you have witnessed Look Mexico's journey throughout the past few years and are excited about this new album. For some of you, this might be the first you have ever heard of Look Mexico. Whichever side of the fence you are on, I really hope that you will spend a little time with a band we still can't believe we are working with. Look Mexico were one of the first bands (along with Fake Problems) to contribute to our Under the Influence 7" series. Their track, a cover of Looking Glass' "Brandy, You're a Fine Girl" was a spot on cover that really showed the band's musical chops. Shortly after, they released the "Gasp Asp" 7" for Tine Engine and those tracks just blew me away. I had always been a fan, but those 2 releases gave me a glimpse into what the band might be capable of on their next album. Luckily, we found out that their next recording effort would be their greatest material to date finding the banding growing and maturing to forge their own distinct style. "To Bed to Battle" is a masterpiece and I can't wait for all to hear the album Look Mexico have been working so hard to put out. The album will be pressed on LP, CD, available digitally, and available as a deluxe set with LP, CD, Poster, Pint Glass, T-shirt, Coozie, and Button. The vinyl will be pressed in an edition of 1,000 copies (500 on Salmon/Orange vinyl, 500 on black vinyl). After the first pressing sells out, we will press all future pressings on black vinyl. To Bed To Battle was written and recorded this past summer in Look Mexico’s former hometown of Tallahassee, FL. With the converted basement of a local pizza shop dedicated as their studio space, the band was able to take their time throughout the recording process, experimenting with and expanding their sound, and adding new instrumentation such as electric piano, organ, pedal steel, violin, cello, and horns. The resulting album – which deals with struggle and pressing on in the face of adversity – is an incredibly catchy, diverse yet cohesive set of 10 songs. To Bed To Battle ranges musically from anthemic pop/rock and explosive ballads (“You Stay. I Go. No Following,” “Until The Lights Burn Out?”), to alternately edgy and dreamy math-rock (“No Wonder I’m Still Awake,” “Time For You To Go Do Your Own Thing”), to blistering, barreling modern rock (“I Live My Life A Quarter Mile At A Time,” “They Offered Me A Deal (I Said No, Naturally”), to even acoustic, chamber pop-laced Americana (“Take It Upstairs, Einstein”). CDs will ship a week before the March 23rd Street Date. Vinyl will ship closer to the end of March/early April. Pre-order this album and you will be entered to win a test pressing. Good luck.
