Unknown Mortal Orchestra

Unknown Mortal Orchestra are a three piece group out of New Zealand. They have a great lo-fi sound to them. It gives you a feeling of some dreamy 60s music. Their self-titled debut album was released just last month and has gotten tons of buzz on indie music sites. For good reason, too.

It is a very strong first effort that makes you think that this is more like a second or third album as opposed to a debut. It opens up with a great track, "Ffunny Ffrends". No, there aren't any typos in that track title. That's below along with a live version so you can hear how the lo-fi sound translates when played live. So if you're a fan of the lo-fi sound, this band and album should be right up your alley.
