Product Description Quite a few of those millennial types on the internet have been asking the band things like: ''What's up with the new album? Why's it taking so long? How come you guys don't play that one song anymore or have merchandise at your shows?'' While Big Business don't have time to answer all of those types of questions directly, we at Hydra Head would like to take this opportunity to present you with some True Facts about Mind The Drift. FACT #1: Producer Phil Ek (insert famous bands like The Shins here) has again evolved the band's grandiose sound and taken the Biz into new sonic territories! FACT #2: Guitarist and newest band member Toshi Kasai adds new voice and dimension, and looks good doing it. You can actually hear the handsome. FACT #3: Most of the instrumental tracks were recorded at AVAST! 2 studios in Seattle, WA in June and July of 2008. FACT #4: Due to the busy touring schedule of Big Biz and the Melvins, most of the vocals, as well as some overdubs and mixing, had to be postponed until late November of 2008. The album was completed in Los Angeles (well, ctually, Burbank to be precise). (That's a two-fer.) FACT #5: While recording Jared's vocals, Phil Ek kept a loaded sawed-off shotgun in the control room. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsOH MY GOD THIS RULES!!!!! B. Forman | Pawtucket, RI USA | 05/13/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "definitely a little different than their last effort, this one is much more "spacey." it's still freakin' awesome and something that you should immediately buy!" CAN'T GO WRONG HungBunny | 12/31/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "This record will rock your balls off, the sound is so fat and huge you'll have to listen to it with a life vest on. anyone perplexed about Toshi joining the band on guitar will be satisfied, the drums and bass still kick out the major jams and the guitar adds lots of cool soundscapes and twisted riffs. Over all the Business is back and doing what they know how to do best: making your eardrums cave in. Highly recommended to anyone who likes, sludge metal, stoner rock, psychedelic rock or progressive rock." It had potential, but it ended up letting me down Aaron A. Rose | 10/19/2009 (3 out of 5 stars) "Disappointing, to say the least. After having listened to their previous albums -- most notably the focused, epic output that was "Here Comes the Waterworks" -- this seems too meandering and anti-climactic. Toshi Kisai's guitar work does nothing to augment the quality sludge-ridden, bass-heavy sound that this band is known for. Instead, the guitar parts simply noodle along, and fail to amount to anything more than a distraction-tactic that takes away from the overall sound. Every band must experiment once in a while, but unfortunately for Big Business, said experimentation ends up leading the band to their first stumbling block of their career. Here's hoping they can shape up the production and guitar parts for their next album -- whenever that may come to be."
