mssv, a trio featuring Stephen Hodges (Tom Waits, Mavis Staples, David Lynch) on drums, mike watt (MINUTEMEN, fIREHOSE, Stooges) on bass, and Mike Baggetta on guitar and lead vocals, will release their third studio album on Friday March 7.
Scene Point Blank is excited to partner with the band to share a new video from On and On, a song called "Super Dumb," which fits the mood as we stumble through 2025. The song blends harsh noise and jazzy rhythms, discordant while simultaneously hypnotic.
"I live in Florida and originally wrote this song about Gov. DeSantis, but as it unfolded, it all started to reveal a bigger story about the tyrannies everyone experiences in everyday life, big and small, known and unknown," Baggetta says about the song.
Here is the video from director Hiyori Minato:
The band has a massive 58-show US tour coming up, with a show each night, traveling from San Pedro, CA and all the way back around the county to Los Angeles. The bband also heads to the UK in late May.
On and On is available from BIG EGO Records and is a follow-up to Human Reaction. Buy it here.
