History in the making

Alright, if you haven’t heard of them yet, you will… soon. The band is Mute Math. They have a video of their first released single called “Typical”. In said music video, the band plays in reverse. Lots of videos have been done in reverse, but few, if any, have been an actual performance backwards. The bandmates learned to play, and lip-synch, all of their parts from end to beginning, that way when the recording was played in reverse it actually looked like they were singing and playing regularly, but all of their movements were backwards. Follow me?

Well, last night Mute Math made history by being the first band to every play the song backwards on live TV. They recreated their music video in front of a live audience, and they did it all in one take. They didn’t stop the cameras and redo a part they screwed up, they did the whole song in reverse. It was actually pretty cool.

Check out the craziness

By the way, if you have a chance to see Mute Math in your local area, I definitely suggest it. They put on a very original, high energy show, which was probably the best I’ve ever seen. Share your thoughs in the comments.
