NYC noise-punks turned industrial-rivetheads Pop. 1280 are back with a new single, new LP, and new label! Stereogum premiered “Noncompliant”, the first single from Museum On The Horizon – an album that continues the metamorphosis from rock into electronic sounds. I co-produced, recorded, and mixed the record with the group at Studio Windows over the winter…. it was one of my first in-person sessions after having to work remotely last year, and we fully dug into the studio process. Every drum machine and synth were synced – resulting in happy accidents and completely bizarre sounds – and we experimented heavily with processing (guitars through synths, synths through amps, everything through something else), resulting in something that feels very LIVE while leaning into the beats & grooves. Josh Bonati mastered Museum On The Horizon, which comes out September 24 via Profound Lore. Check out “Noncompliant” below, and order a copy on Bandcamp!
