About Mew
Danish trio Mew released their debut album 'A Triumph For Man' in 1997, produced by Damon Tutunjian of the indie band the Swirlies.
In 2000 they released 'Half The World Is Watching Me', which they produced themselves with the help of Flemming Rasmussen, who is most known for his work with Metallica in the 1980s. Excitement over their live performances finally reached outside Denmark and caught the attention of Epic, Sony who signed them in 2001 to produce the band's first international release. Two years later, critics around the world endorsed 'And the Glass Handed Kites'. The songs "Zookeeper's Boy," "Special" and "Why Are You Looking Grave" (with J Mascis) became international radio hits and led the band to sweep the 2006 Danish Music Awards in four categories, including Best Band and Best Album.
Mew returned earlier this year with the triumphant 'No More Stories...', a towering, masterpiece which pushes their artfully weird and epic sound-labyrinthine arrangements of overlapping, unexpected harmonies and sugary heaven-bound vocals-into a warm, accessible collection of songs with more stick-in-your-head hooks than words in its extensive album title. The complete 23-word name comes from the lyrics of the middle-record track "Hawaii Dream."
Mew are: singer, Jonas Bjerre; guitarist Bo Madsen and drummer Silas Utke Graae Jørgensen.
