More On This Album

The Glitch Mob – the Los Angeles-based trio comprising Justin Boreta, Ed Ma, and Joshua Mayer – continue their forward momentum into 2011 after their most successful year yet. Following the huge success of their debut album Drink The Sea, the group just released a three-song EP, We Can Make The World Stop with some of their most innovative work yet. Now on tour with a stellar new live setup, The Glitch Mob is quickly becoming one of the most in-demand and distinctive electronic groups out there.

Boreta, Ma, and Mayer came together around 2006, passing through various members until settling on this core trio of instrumentalists/producers. Together they combined their skills and aesthetics into a compellingly collaged whole. Put out via The Glitch Mob’s own Glass Air imprint in 2010, Drink The Sea represented the group’s growth from an underground project to a full-fledged force to be reckoned with. From the cosmic cover art by Sonny Kay (famed for his work with The Mars Volta) to its cathartic, psychedelic glitch hop  grooves it holds inside, Drink The Sea would launch a whole new phase in the group’s evolution. The album’s first single, “Drive It Like You Stole It,” sped to the top of  Hype Machine’s charts, Drink The Sea landed at #15 in its first week on the Billboard Dance Chart, and the Mob became the #1 most added on CMJ’s “RPM” charts, debuting in the top ten. That success allowed The Glitch Mob to perform headlining tours built around major international festival appearances at Coachella, Lollapalooza, Ultra, Sasquatch, Camp Bisco, Electric Daisy Carnival, Electric Zoo and Nocturnal Wonderland.  Boreta says that, “While on the road, we were bursting with inspiration and ideas for the next phase in the evolution of our sound.” Catch the rest after the jump!
