Mysterious Brooklyn-based duo, MS MR, have created excitement online with their latest single, “Hurricane,” a dark glitch pop track with equally hauntingly beautiful vocals. The 7” for “Hurricane” will be officially released on July 10th via IAMSOUND Records/Chess Club. Stream/download the single via the MS MR Soundcloud (over 210k streams) and watch the video that will throw you into a sensory overload induced epileptic fit with its images that reference the pop culture icons of childhood. If you dig the video, then head over to MS MR’s tumblr, where you can get your fill of 90s influenced visuals.
Their first ever Portland show will be next Friday, July 13 at Aladdin Theatre. The next night they will be at the Showbox Market in Seattle.
