Mute Math - "Spotlight" (2009)

Mute Math are one of the more innovative and original rock bands playing these days. The four-piece from New Orleans has been wowing crowds with their unique brand of electronic pop rock since 2003 when they released their debut EP Reset. The band released their self titled full length debut in 2006 on their own label, Teleprompt Records. The band rose to prominence when the video for the second single “Typical” garnered airplay on MTV and Fuse and led to the band making the rounds on the late night talk shows. Their national popularity continued to grow as they brought their energetic live show to thousands at festivals such as Bonaroo and Lollapalooza as well as Warped Tour and their hometown Voodoo Music Festival. Mute Math has been working on their sophomore record for nearly two years now and have finally announced a tentative release of August this year. Today’s song is the title track from the recently released four track Spotlight EP. The song was originally featured on the soundtrack to the movie Twilight back in November. The EP is rounded out with a new b-side as well as an instrumental demo and a remix of “Spotlight.” The song is great and if it’s any indication of what Mute Math are cooking up for LP2, August can’t come soon enough.
