Menomena releases Mines (Expanded Edition)

Since the announcement (and immediate sell-out, and subsequent addition of a second show) of their first live performance in a decade, Portland, Oregon-based experimental indie rock trio Menomena (Justin Harris, Danny Seim, and returning co-founder Brent Knopf) today released Mines (Expanded Edition), the second in a series of digital archive reissues collecting unreleased music, b-sides, remixes and rarities with their Barsuk Records-era album output, all recorded from 2007 until the band went on hiatus in 2014.

Menomena's second full-length Barsuk release Mines (2010) is now available with 10 bonus tracks, including four previously unreleased songs (the banger "Jeans," "TV Tower" — now reunited with its originally conjoined track "Let Me Know" after they were separated at birth, "Lions," and the delightful "Oh Pretty Remix, You're Such A Big Remix" by Paul Alcott of Portland combo Dat'r), plus three more tracks previously available only on vinyl, and all the music from The Insulation EP.

The final Barsuk reissue in the series (an expanded edition of the 2012 album Moms will follow in the coming weeks. 26 Jul 2024

Menomena releases Friend and Foe (Expanded Edition)

Following last month's jam-packed announcement of the first Menomena show in over a decade + the release of previously unreleased songs (The Insulation EP), we're excited to be sharing Menomena's Friend and Foe (Expanded Edition). It's one of our very favorite albums. While recording it, the band was in the midst of a prolific creative period that included making the great Wet and Rusting EP — all the tracks from which are included on this expanded reissue along with the excellent and previously unreleased "Golden Gate," "Lochness," and "Lone Ranger." Those songs — plus the anomalous but appealing DeKodeR remix of album track "Weird" and the chaotic, long-unavailable mixtape "Magichat" — are all now included with Friend and Foe as bonus materials, downloadable and streaming wherever you get your digital music.

To further mark the occasion, the band used some new-fangled AI technology to increase the resolution of some of their early music videos — no, they didn't add new characters or extra fingers or explosions; they just pushed the ‘enhance’ button that's always getting used in sci-fi movies to bring low-resolution imagery into focus — and have released newly robot-clarified versions of the delightful videos "Rotten Hell" (directed by Trevor McMahan) and "Evil Bee" (directed by Stefan Nadelman) from Friend and Foe... plus one of the great indie music videos of all time, the Jonnie Ross-directed "Cough Coughing" from the band's debut album I Am the Fun Blame Monster!. All three videos can be seen here. 10 May 2024

Unreleased Menomena music + PDX show + vinyl reissue

After a decade-long hiatus, Portland, Oregon-based experimental indie rock trio Menomena (Justin Harris, Danny Seim, and returning co-founder Brent Knopf) announced an August 10, 2024 show in their hometown to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the band's beloved debut album I Am the Fun Blame Monster! along with a pre-order for a colored-vinyl reissue of the long-out-of-print LP via SlyVinyl Records.

Menomena also announced a series of expanded-edition digital reissues of their Barsuk Records albums Friend And Foe (2007), Mines (2010), and Moms (2012), and as an appetizer they released their first music to hit streaming platforms in over a decade: The Insulation EP contains three Mines-era tracks any of which could easily have been singles, each culled from an excavation of the band's archives during which they found a large quantity of large-quality music that had either never made its way to digital music services or had never been released at all.

This somewhat chaotic barrage of announcements caps a decade in which the members of Menomena have kept quite busy with a volume of other projects (Harris as a member of UK-based fellow genre-breakers Bloc Party; Knopf with his solo project Ramona Falls and then with EL VY, his collaboration with The National's Matt Berninger; Seim with his solo project Lackthereof and as the creative director of Louisville, KY's Portland Museum where his current project is curating and building a children's museum). 16 Apr 2024
