MIXTURES - THE REMIXES 2009

2009 reveals the release of MIXTURES, a remix album by The Follow spanning the band’s five-album catalogue. It features mixes by The Follow’s own Troy Rickertsen and four other friends of the band: Iris, Scribe Machine, Declans Well, and The Moscow Coup Attempt. The Midwest threesome is already back in the studio tracking the next full-length album slated for a late 2009 or early 2010 release!

The Follow’s sincerity and commitment to explore internal issues with an original sound allows the band to be completely universal and addicting. Besides, any band that has a statue of Jesus on the cover of an album that neither mentions Him nor thanks Him in the credits begs to be explored further. If you wondered what happened to bands that search for a deeper meaning and some sort of fresh musical identity, simply look to The Follow.
