Description
'Chopping Mountain', the new record by Ibibio Sound Machine is the clearest rendering yet of the London collective's longstanding mission to promote love, unity, and resistance through music. It is the band's sixth full-length record, and the first to feature the band's Max Grunhard as producer since 2019's 'Doko Mien'. Following their Hot Chip-produced breakthrough 'Electricity' (2022) and the darker, clubbier inflection of the Ross Orton-produced 'Pull the Rope' (2024), 'Chopping Mountain' feels like it was pulled directly from the hearts and experiences of the Eno Williams and Grunhard-led band.
