MYSTERY PALACE 02.24.07 I am absolutely thrilled to announce Zod Record’s debut release of "Flags Forward" from Minneapolis trio, Mystery Palace. Their sound is truly unique, combining live percussion, bass guitar, a mountain of hacked and circuit bent keyboards, and ethereal melodic vocals. Their avant synth pop sound embodies exactly the type of ingenuity and experimentation we have always embraced, but adds a lyrical melody that defines a new era for pop music and Zod Records. "Flags Forward" will be available on CD and a limited 12" on April 27. Prerelease promo materials will be available shortly. http://www.mystery-palace.com/ http://www.myspace.com/mysterypalace Back in Business 02.24.07 After a brief period of dormancy and regrouping, we are back in action with new releases and live performances.
