In a world of fake talent and pitch correction, Mute Math can actually come through with their performances live just as good if not better than on their album. Pure talent.
omg the sound on this show is horrible. i feel bad for the bands that are capable of so much more than this and just are screwed over by the sound set lol
Who cares what or who THEY're talking about! The point is to decide what the song means for YOU! That's all any songwriter wants: for their songs to mean something to someone else!
Well techincally they´re not a christian band. Although the band member might still be christian. Lyrics and songs have to be more precise to be put in genre, like in this case christian music.
I love this song so much!!!! I can't wait for their new album to come out. :D I didn't know they were on this show though. I hope Craig will have them back on some time soon.
This song is about Jesus, for those of you who don't know. I love Mute Math! They're an amazing band and this is my favorite song by them. I also love their song, "Spotlight", which is on the Twilight Soundtrack. :D
Paul continues to rock in Mute Math! Man, those guys rock! And for those who don't know, that sick bass player is named Roy Mitchell-Cárdenas, the crazy drummer is Darren King, the unique guitarist is Greg Hill, and that energetic lead singer and keyboardist is Paul Meany.
Anyone Paul Meany chooses to work with will probably always be the musicians to beat, and I don't think half of the music world even knows they should be competing. The man knows how to put a good band together.
does anyone know where i could find their performance of 'Break the Same' from Late Night with Conan O'brien? i absolutely fell in love with that live performance.
still, this one was very very awesome. kudos Mute Math; all you guys are talented and inspire musicians everywhere :)
Paul Meany formed a band originally called Math with the ex-drummer from Earthsuit, Darren King. Soon after, Greg Hill and original Earthsuit member Roy Mitchell joined the band and changed the name to Mute Math due to problems from using the name Math. Adam LaClave has formed two bands, Club of the Sons and Macrosick. Club of the Sons currently tours with Mute Math. Mute Math has released an EP called Reset and a self-titled debut album.
Mute Math. It started with a band called Earthsuit. The band featured Adam LaClave, Paul Meany, David Hutchison, and Dave Rumsey. Their only commercial album "Kaleidoscope Superior" was a moderate success but the song "One Time" was a hit in christian music. In 2001 they split up due to music conflicts.
he has an amazing voice, i dont think english is his first language. its almost like he has an accent. it seems like he forgot the words in the first verse, I'm not sure....
I really think that all the guys and girls who mentioned that it doesn't matter whether the band's christian or something are amazing. Mute Math are amazing for sure. You are definately people with amazing musical tastes. Keep on rocking.
*Nod*. Who gives a damn if they're Christians, or have Christian-oriented lyrics? If they make good music, they make good music. Lyrics are the absolute LAST thing I consider when listening to a song, but I'm most definitely in the minority there.
That being said, I love the drummer / bassist. The guitarist is fine, too. The singer however, leaves something to be desired, especially live. Just my two cents.
why does it matter if their chistian or not their clearly really good and are going to be liked by anybody no matter if the band happens to be muslim jewish christain or athiest.
Im so tired of this Christian rock argument. Who really cares who's Christian and who's not? The Christian music industry is more evil than the secular industry and I understand why bands leave. Been there....
One of the banes of this American Church is that, because we exist in a country that labels and categorizes everything to sell it better, that we've adopted that for ourselves. I think the more that Christians work within the "secular" music world, where they're judged by their music and not just by their label, the better "Christian" music will get.
Their exact religion aside, I've yet to hear a Beastie Boys song called "Hosha'anah Rabah". If someone in a band says they're a Christian, their music is automatically categorized by their faith and not instrumental genre. Creed had more obvious Christian overtones and yet they were never tagged as a "Christian band".
They are a Christian band. Seriously look it up. The former band name was Earthsuit which was definitely Jesus freak material. They were more techno then. X_x I miss that.
I can guarantee you that there is a christian based message in each song. Its the message that counts they are not competing on how many gods, or jesus' are written in each song. Like spynalcrd said they are looking to reach out the mainstream crowd not only the christian crowd, that would be kind of selfish . If you look it at this way they probably reach more people in the mainstream world than christian artists do. non-christians run away from a song with jesus written all over it.
They don't want to be marketed as a Christian Band because the Christian music industry only markets to people who are already Christian. Mute Math wants to play at clubs and bars so they can move people looking for that musical connection in a positive direction. They don't want to be shelved in a small section of a music store. They're open to play in front of anyone and everyone.
