Do musical movements don't die, they lose momentum. The sounds of 70s pop aren't what they used to be, but Music Go Music doesn't have any qualms about bringing them back. And Mission of Burma is still carrying a torch for the early days of post-punk.
We've got new albums from them, plus tracks from Daniel Johnston, Elvis Perkins, and A Place to Bury strangers.
