Disappointing. The first two records Mission of Burma made after reuniting, especially ONoffON, were astounding. They sounded as urgent and vital as anything the band made in the earlier days, perhaps even better: angrier and more angular, with a desperation that so many comeback albums lack. But The Sound is ordinary and uninspired, which is unexpected given the band's track record. Although there are some great moments here, unfortunately The Sound won't be the first to come to mind when you want to put a MoB record on.
So Fuck It - Mission of Burma
