Details
The conversation started something like this…
Umphrey’s McGee entered I.V. Labs Studio in Chicago in November of 2016 to record what would become the band’s eleventh full-length studio album. The result was, it’s not us, the most vibrant, mature expression of the band’s growing studio prowess to date. “We decided to go in for a week, live, eat, and breathe Umphrey’s McGee,” recalls Joel, “we’re known as a strong live band, but we take so much pride in our writing. [In this album] the focus is on that writing.”
The first single “The Silent Type” is powered by a bombastic beat, funkified rhythms, fiery fretwork, and a chantable refrain, introducing it’s not us with a bright and brilliant bang. “Half Delayed” builds from airy guitar into an iridescent refrain, meanwhile, the bass strut anthemic beat production and percussive wallop of “Looks” could be the love child of Nine Inch Nails and Talking Heads. The metallic shredfest outro of “Remind Me” bleeds effortlessly into the gorgeous acoustic love song “You & You Alone.”
The album is Umphrey’s McGee at its peak prowess, creating music with both precision and emotional content 20 years into a career. it’s not us is an expression about it being bigger than individuals, it really isn’t about them – but all of us.

DianaMarch 16, 2018Excellent CD. Love it. Especially love You & You alone.
-
MaddyFebruary 5, 2018LOVE the new album and so excited that we were able to get it on vinyl. Vinyl is coming back and it's awesome to have our oldies and our newer favorites to jam to as well!
-
vinceJanuary 26, 2018I received the album when I was told I would but better yet the album kicks ass just like I knew it would. Keep up the good work guys.

ChochJanuary 25, 2018Great album, sounds great and love the design of the packaging and records. The AR experience is a little disappointing compared to the Red Rocks poster though. It only works in bright lighting but the reflective nature of the etched D side of the disc makes it a little difficult to position in order to get the whole video to play through without the image blinking in and out and flipping upside down. Cool concept for sure, and I don't know of any other artist that has done this, but maybe vinyl isn't the best format for an AR experience such as this.

John CurrierJanuary 23, 2018I really enjoyed this album. Great production. Excellent song writing. Thanks for the past 20 years! Cheers to 20 more!!!
-
MarioJanuary 23, 2018I love the signed LP! It’s really cool that the band does that and I’m glad to own one before they get any bigger. However, the only problem I had was that the I received the record a full week after it was released. I guess they give the DL code, but still.

Pierre TerrierJanuary 23, 2018Love the quality of sound on vinyl. UMG sound has really improved over the years and is becoming audiophile quality. Only wish the older albums could sound that good, even the remaster don't quite measure up to your new work, but quite understandable. You guys have now some of the best sound around. Tremendous bass is your sound signature as far as I am concerned and midrange and treble clarity is excellent. Thank you for offering such quality music.
