Expanding on the sound of the band's earlier Signals, Calls, and Marches EP, the album blends post punk, art rock, and experimental noise while capturing the intensity of the group's live performances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecorded in a large studio space to preserve the band's raw sound, Vs. features a greater use of Martin Swope's tape loops and electronic effects alongside the angular guitars and driving rhythms that defined Mission of Burma's music. Songs such as “Secrets”, “Mica”, and “Trem Two” balance melody with dissonance, creating a sound that was both adventurous and influential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough it received strong critical reviews upon release, Vs. proved to be the band's only studio album of the 1980s, as Mission of Burma disbanded shortly afterward due to guitarist Roger Miller's worsening tinnitus. In the years since, the album has come to be regarded as one of the defining American post punk releases of its era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRACKLIST:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1 Secrets\u003cbr\u003eA2 Train\u003cbr\u003eA3 Trem Two\u003cbr\u003eA4 New Nails\u003cbr\u003eA5 Dead Pool\u003cbr\u003eA6 Learn How\u003cbr\u003eB1 Mica\u003cbr\u003eB2 Weatherbox\u003cbr\u003eB3 The Ballad Of Johnny Burma\u003cbr\u003eB4 Einstein's Day\u003cbr\u003eB5 Fun World\u003cbr\u003eB6 That's How I Escaped My Certain Fate\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Resolute Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47984261267714,"sku":"744861086819","price":29.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/0007\/9304\/files\/MissionOfBurma_Vs..jpg?v=1781286049","url":"https:\/\/resoluterecords.ca\/products\/mission-of-burma-vs-new-vinyl","provider":"Resolute Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
