March 14, 2007Inspired by My Bloody Valentine, the Pixies, Dinosaur Jr., Pet Shop Boys and Prince, the Danish band Mew crafts expansive space-pop songs with the epic drive of rock. Formed among friends in a seventh-grade class and fully realized some years later, Mew long ago convinced a book-publishing agent to restructure his company to release music. After independently releasing CDs, a major label picked Mew up for worldwide distribution. The band's critically acclaimed 2003 album, Frengers, received both Album and Band of the Year honors at the Danish Music Critics Awards.
