Mission Of Burma has a new album called The Obliterati out now on Matador Records that I finally picked up today. Since I have only scratched the surface of this one, I’ll leave you with a a classic Burma performance from long ago. I’m sure I’ll say something about their new record soon enough.
Funny that I was not even five years old when they rocked CBGB’s on January 21, 1983 a mere two months before they disbanded. The sound quality is great as is the band’s performance. They were incredibly ahead of their time and now they are back. Have a listen.

The Obliterati is the real deal. Fantastic stuff.
I wasn’t sure if you’d be featuring Slayer today, in honor of it being their day and all. I do like me some Mission of Burma though, so I will not complain.
live in ’83? CLUTCH – thanks are due from my end!
