Mulberry Hill and the blistering 2000 piece puzzle of "Burning Down My Job"

 

"going broke but we feel much more / alive..."

The blistering 2000 piece puzzle rock crunch of "Burning Down My Job" by Pottstown, Pennsylvania based Mulberry Hill feels as delirious as it does complexly jammy. Utterly explosive, hyper and super charged, the style here also feels incredibly wonky and makes an old dog like me think of the late 70's power pop / art pop eccentricities of artists like Alex Chilton, The Exploding Hearts, The Rezillos, Sparks, Bates Motel that easily translated to proto punk movements going on at the same time. 80's new wave artists, 20/20, XTC, Dramarama come to mind as well as elegant British progressive new wave bands like Bruce Wooley and the Camera Club and super progressive art rockian outfits like Be Bop Deluxe. 

I mean the heaviness, the density of sound is much heavier here, of course, but attitudinally I feel like these guys are cut from that same kind of creative cloth and maybe my mind is set in those eras' cracked and chipped concrete. The progressive interlock here also feels like an amalgam of more current artists like Mars Volta and Modest Mouse. All these references work for me and make sense. 

"Burning Down My Job" is from Mulberry Hill's latest EP "Surrender to the Midnight Delirium" out now.
