A RARE LOOK AHEAD

In 2020, Mythical Motors released two albums: Leviathan Messiah and Sleepwalking On Main Street. Leviathan Messiah was a bit of a departure, as it focused more on heavy psychedelic songs as well as atmospheric acoustic pieces. Though it also contained some jangly pop, it was ultimately a darker album. For the follow-up, Sleepwalking On Main Street, they chose to make a more accessible and pop-oriented album.

"When it came time to choose the songs for A Rare Look Ahead, I decided to make an album with a more comprehensive range," Mythical Motors' Matt Addison explains.

"Years Of June," one of the singles from the album, is a driving jangle pop tune written from the perspective of a wandering spirit.

The dreamy soundscape of "Inescapable Midnight," stands in stark contrast with the jagged post-punk barrage of "Crashing Waves Of Fascination."

"Fix The Circulation," a New Wave-influenced track, flows effortlessly into the driving garage rock of "The Flower Disappears Without You."

The album culminates with the psychedelic crescendo of "The No Name Followers," and is a summation of the many styles that make up the band's musical DNA.
