Don’t you dare call them Christian rock. Warner Brothers knows this now after New Orleans-based MuteMath filed suit when they, along with Teleprompt Records, filed suit against Warner Bros claiming breach of contract and negligent misrepresentation in regards to them being “Christian Rock.” They’re not. They, do, however, rock. The singer, Paul Meany, formerly of the Christian rock group Earthsuit (hence all the legal fuss), combines with Darren King (drums), Greg Hill (guitar), and Roy Mitchell-Cardenas (bass), to create solid rock-and-roll ready for big arenas, if their fans will come, and they should because MuteMath, god damn, knows how to throw down the tunes. Think U2 without the wrap around sunglasses and lemon songs. Sometimes, unsure how far to push the sonic envelope, they cater to their lowest common demonimator, i.e. bland contemporary rock that a baker’s dozen of bands are already creating. Sometimes. though, they do push forward (“Break the Same,” “Plan B,” Radiohead-esque “Reset”) sending out inspired tunes over the airwaves. God bless them.
