Are You Tired Of Being Human? Sons Of Mu's New LP Will Make You Question It All!


Psych/Rock band Sons of Mu, established in 2018, have contacted INFL with a lovely exclusive on their new LP Are You Tired Of Being Human? and we're loving it! The 10 track LP has something for everyone; whether you're more into psychedelic tunes, punk, rock, or even some funky tracks, this new album has it.


Available on their bandcamp, you can pre-order the digital, CD, or vinyl version of the album before its release soon!

Each track on this LP is great in their own way; through lots of head-bang-worthy beats, or slowed, reverb and incredible vibes. Having been over a year in the making for this new LP, i definitely believe every single one of these tracks is perfectly curated in the exact way intended by the band.


Personally, my top 3 tracks on the upcoming LP are Marshmallow/Doomed, 7/8 Lemonade, and The Locksmith: which you can pre-order on Bandcamp to get 1 track now and the others as soon as they are released!


This LP was inspired by many things like media and even different genres of music. Their biggest influences come from many places like Can, Spacemen 3 to obscure science fiction movies.


Basically, if you're into anything from 60s/70s German krautrock, left-of-centre psychedelia, and funk-infused garage jams, Sons Of Mu fits right in the musical lineage: running from Can and Spacemen 3 through to more modern acts like Tame Impala and Khruangbin. Their tapestry of influences spans classic grooves and avant-garde atmospheres—making them a compelling listen in today’s psychedelic-funk scene, no matter what musical genre you prefer!


This LP stands out in many ways and there are some hidden links between this and their previous releases. here are my favourite aspects of the new tracks dropping soon:


  • Production: Their homegrown, analog-feel gives this LP a documentarian quality—authentic and unique; differing from many big recording companies that try to take away from that originality and hard work.

  • Dynamics: It keeps you guessing—from cosmic washes to tight grooves and sudden bursts of energy, each song bringing different strong emotions with them, that can change at any given minute.

  • Conceptual depth: The recurrent “human” theme, while obvious from the LP title, is thought provoking and demands an answer —are you tired of being bound by the mundane?


Here is the track list for the LP:

  1. Marshmallow/ Doomed

  2. 7/8 Lemonade

  3. Burning Torch

  4. The Locksmith (this is available to listen to on their Bandcamp page now)

  5. Mugshot

  6. Isolation

  7. Small World

  8. Thinktank

  9. Golden Age

  10. It Never Stops

Who else is more excited after hearing the track names?


As someone who has never really been into psychedelic rock (as its not my kind of music); i can honestly say this LP has changed my mind; i would gladly sit and play this over and over again! It is a journey through rock/punk/psych/funk music history in a way, which is so cool and welcome on my playlist any day.


Set your calendars for June 27th when this wonderful LP will finally be released for all you to enjoy as well!
