A New Mission

Well, happy birthday to ME!

In addition to a great evening with my family in celebration of my 36th year, today brought the release of an audio preview of The Brightest Light, the new album by one of my old favorites, The Mission UK. The Brightest Light features the classic Simon Hinkler/Wayne Hussey/Craig Adams incarnation of the band on record for the first time since 1990’s extraordinary Carved In Sand.

Due for a North American release exactly two months from today, The Brightest Light is slated to include the following tunes:

Black Cat Bone

Everything But The Squeal

Sometimes The Brightest Light Comes From The Darkest Place

Born Under A Good Sign

The Girl In The Furskin Rug

When The Trap Clicks Shut Behind Us

Ain’t No Prayer In The Bible Can Save Me Now

Just Another Pawn In Your Game

From The Oyster Comes The Pearl

Swan Song

Litany For The Faithful

I’m a huge fan of the original Mission UK, so the news that Simon, Wayne and Craig are recording together again (with new drummer Mike Kelly) made my day even better. Have a listen to the album preview below.
