I talked to Mitsume for The Japan Times this week in regards to their very nice new album A Long Day, and now they’ve gone and shared another new song from the full-length (out today). “Objet” is one of the sparser songs from the album, the band making the most of space (nothing makes a guitar solo more effective than allowing it plenty of space to pop out from). As a whole, A Long Day isn’t quite as interesting as their previous effort (which makes sense, given this latest set is more inspired from playing shows live than Sasayaki’s experimental origins), but is overall a nice addition to the Mitsume catalog and way more enjoyable than a lot of rock albums coming out now. And “Objet” is a highlight. Listen above.
