Mike's fifth solo studio album. Gordon sees OGOGO as a means of soaking his current life in and putting it back out again in the music. "Everything just came up serendipitously from writing the songs to finding the producer to finding the album title."
Scott Murawski (guitar/vocals), Robert Walter (keyboards), John Morgan Kimock (drums) and Craig Myers (percussion) join Gordon on this record. And Murawski has been half of of the writing team for some nine years.
The album was produced by GRAMMY Award winning Shawn Everett. The producer has been behind the boards for a slew of critically-lauded releases—this year alone, Everett has done work on the new albums from The War on Drugs, Grizzly Bear, Broken Social Scene and Perfume Genius, among others. Everett had a big impact on the album's sound. "A lot of Shawn's stuff is experimental but not at the expense of the groove," Gordon says. "Every instrument and every voice was recorded in a way that I've never seen before."
Much of OGOGO was recorded at Q Division in Boston. "All five of us decided not to do what we had done before, but to be fresher and try to find our own voices. That started happening in a some jams... I want things to be interesting in a way that would serve the song."

BayleeOctober 2, 2017Besides a few pops during the intro to Equilibrium, this is probably the highest quality record we own, given most endured a flood recently. Couldn't ask for more! I loved the sneak peek tracks, but the album in its entirety is an exceptional and multidirectional treat. I play this vinyl every day. Much love Mike! I, unfortunately, became ill and had to leave at the set break when you were last in Houston and visited with the crowd. It would be an honor to win a chance to hit record shops with you!

Ben SwansonSeptember 26, 2017Mike Gordon Band's new album is completely breakthrough. I intend to use album as the sign post of post-history. Nothing that came before it can be compared to it and everything that happens after this will be different. This album is the catalyst to abandon the historical thought stream. Give up!
