I went to see Mute Math (with As Tall As Lions opening) at the Nokia Theater last night and as always they gave a great show. Since this was the last night of their Armistice album tour, they played a lot of songs from their new album but also mixed in a lot of older songs.
I was super excited when they started playing “Peculiar People” because that was the song that made me love them when I heard them play it a few years back at a show at Irving Plaza (where THEY were the opening act and nobody knew who they were). Overall, this show was spectacular and I still hold to the belief that if you haven’t seen Mute Math live, then you haven’t truly seen a great live show.

Mute Math’s Armistice Tour started today and to celebrate, I personally rushed after work to grab tickets to the NYC show on November 13, 2009.
Tickets for the NYC show at Nokia Theater in Times Square are still available if you’re looking to buy. I recommend saving about $20 by going to the actual ticket booth at Nokia Theater to purchase tickets. Otherwise, TicketMaster rapes you with convenience charges.
Mute Math’s Armistice tour is set to go on the road one week from today, so I hope you’ve all bought your tickets to see a band that certainly puts on a good show every single time!
Mute Math will be in New York City on November 13 at the Nokia Theater in Times Square. You can buy tickets for that show here ($27).
As I mentioned yesterday, Mute Math’s sophomore album, Armistice, has been leaked ahead of its release date. I’m a big fan so I had a hard time resisting the temptation to listen to it early, and finally I gave in and I literally haven’t listened to any other album since.
The album starts off with one of their latest singles “Nerve” which I found to be one of the least interesting tracks on the entire album. Thankfully, it’s the first track so it gets better quickly and stays that way until the last track. The album is a good mix of fast and slow-paced songs that tend to balance each other out quite well. Overall, I’m really satisfied with this release and now more than ever I cannot wait to go and see Mute Math in concert once again. I’m ready to watch the best live act I’ve ever seen perform new material and simply rock out on stage.
Here are my favorite tracks: Backfire, Pins and Needles, Goodbye, Electrify, Lost Year, and Clockwork.
For those who don’t know, Armistice will be released on August 18, 2009.
