Mark Barrage has been all but absent from the recorded music scene over the last three years or so – ‘Hero Or Dirt’ dropped on Feral Media back in 2005. In the intervening continuum, he’s been playing many live shows (including support for Telepathe, YACHT and Dan Deacon) and steadily crafting the follow-up ‘Delays’, which is released this month via Mistletone Records, Australian home of El Guincho, Lucky Dragons and Panda Bear. ‘Hindsight’ blends Mark’s characteristic dark, singer-songwriter pop with an analogue electro pean to early-era Kraftwerk or Cabaret Voltaire. A mini-Australian tour kicks off in Melbourne at the end of the month – hit the Mistletone site for info.
