|   |  Mouse on Mars is one of the few electronic bands to stand the test |   |
|   |  of time. Constantly reinventing themselves, they have taken        |   |
|   |  electronica to new heights with a unique blend of sound            |   |
|   |  annihilation, fragmented melodies and an impassioned hatred of     |   |
|   |  conformity. For over a decade, Mouse on Mars has sweated over      |   |
|   |  burning consoles to create a new musical language, only to twist   |   |
|   |  it again into thousands of myriad distortions. After recording     |   |
|   |  five albums for Thrill Jockey Records, they now team up with       |   |
|   |  Ipecac Recordings for the release of Varcharz. Entirely recorded   |   |
|   |  at Mouse on MarsÆ St. Martin Ton Studios in Duesseldorf, Varcharz  |   |
|   |  is their most live sounding and diverse studio album to date.      |   |
|   |                                                                     |   |
|   |  The title, Varcharz, is intentionally mistaken to sound like ôwar  |   |
|   |  chartsö, but in fact, it is the phonetic mangling in English of    |   |
|   |  the German word ôwortschatzö which means ôvocabularyö. Recorded    |   |
|   |  throughout the last three years, Varcharz emerges partly from the  |   |
|   |  sessions that produced 2004Æs kinetic dance party, Radical         |   |
|   |  Connector, but reveals the harder and more experimental side of    |   |
|   |  the group. For this album, Mouse on Mars digested a steady diet of |   |
|   |  spatial free-jazz and cocaine-fried booty funk to deliver an album |   |
|   |  reflecting their energetic live setsÆ sparkling chaos and glorious |   |
|   |  precision. Veering away from the vocal hooks of Radical Connector, |   |
|   |  Varcharz is nine tracks (donÆt get confused by its stuttering      |   |
|   |  track IDÆs) of energetic impulses, heavy riffing from grained      |   |
|   |  sounds and canned percussion, and slamming bottom end insanity     |   |
|   |  provided by notorious sequenced bass and kick drum jolts. Varcharz |   |
|   |  is also spiked with catchy pop references, anarchic rock           |   |
|   |  interpretations and manga-style pathos.                            |   |
|   |                                                                     |   |
|   |  Mouse on MarsÆ Andi Toma and Jan St. Werner have been more than    |   |
|   |  busy in the intervening two years between albums. As well as the   |   |
|   |  release of their live record, Live04, on their own label Sonig,    |   |
|   |  and a constant barrage of touring, they are collaborating with     |   |
|   |  Mark E. Smith of The Fall. Both Toma and St. Werner produce        |   |
|   |  independently for the Sonig label. St. Werner has also worked on   |   |
|   |  two new solo records under the Lithops moniker and acts as the     |   |
|   |  artistic director of the Amsterdam Institute for Electronic Music, |   |
|   |  STEIM.                                                             |   |

|   |  Lazaro put it best when he describes the new album: "It's got      |   |
|   |  nerdity and wisdom, and its intensely dynamic and textured. The    |   |
|   |  world of extreme electronica will soon be rejuvenated as Mouse on  |   |
|   |  Mars dechristianize the weak and lay waist to the non-believers.   |   |
|   |  Angst has never been so much fun, THIS is extreme electronica at   |   |
|   |  it's full potential!ö                                              |   |
