"Immigration Man" - 90s Band Relaunches With Intriguing VIDEO
Boston -- After a ten-year hiatus, MõG (rhymes with rogue) relaunches with a remake of Crosby-Nash's 1972 hit "Immigration Man." With a slightly different view of the "immigration" issue, MõG has formally relaunched with a cover tune from the turbulent 70s and offers a "thinking piece" for our times.
Their YouTube video has been described as enigmatic and politically neutral. But, it might just get you to view the immigration question from a new perspective. The video is generating both hits and comments and is being re-posted extensively on sites worldwide.
MõG dates from 1993 and has remained active in the studio. "Immigration Man" is the first track to be released from "Before It's Gone" a selective collection of recordings from their previous 4 CDs along with some new tunes, one turning out to be the Crosby-Nash cover. The complete collection will be released in MP3 format sometime in late Spring 2008 and then, later on, as a regular CD.
MõG is a word, in some traditional languages and folklore, that is said to mean shape shifter or shaman. MõG is Kris Bruno (lead vocals, djembe/percussion, occasional drums, and a Systems Engineer), Bob Schlink (acoustic/electric guitars, vocals, the Viotar™, and a teaching Professor at Berklee College of Music in Boston) and Bob's son, Rob (lead/rhythm guitars and a practicing Entertainment Attorney).
Bob Schlink even invented an instrument called the Viotar™ to enhance MõG's music. This unique sounding "baseball bat with strings" is featured on many of MoG's eclectic songs.
MõG was formed from numerous bands of various styles from Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Rhode Island. They recorded 4 CDs... "Hollis Crossing Live" (1993)... "Herman Says Play" (1995)... "too fisted" (1996)... and "Bizarre Medical Experiments" (1998). The last 3 CDs were recorded at the legendary Blue Jay Recording Studios outside Boston, MA (Aerosmith, Boston, Genesis, Billy Joel, etc.).
