UMPHREY'S McGEE - Mantis (2009)

Umphrey's McGee or UM is an American progressive rock jam band originally from South Bend, Indiana whose music is often referred to as "progressive improvisation", or "improg" (as per a progressive sampler released by the band in 2009).

Umphrey’s McGee is releasing their sixth studio album entitled Mantis to the world on January 20th, 2009. Perhaps not by coincidence, this is also inauguration day in America for a fellow Chicagoan which marks a progressive step forward in a new direction for our country. Thanks to the prudence of Umphrey’s McGee and the dedication to their fans, I received my copy of Mantis a few days before they hit store shelves. For their past studio efforts, Umphrey’s McGee molded and remolded tunes onstage while wide eyes watched and then they layed them down in the studio. But for Mantis the band moved in an entirely new direction. This album was chiseled out in the studio and offers 100% new material that fans had yet to hear. A few months before the release Umphrey’s McGee released some tracks to their myspace page and then offered a one of a kind pre-order package that was eaten up with overwhelming success.
