The Sticks, Mother Mother's fourth album, hit Canadian shelves on Last Gang in September 2012, with the American release trailing into February 2013. It's a concept record about wanting out: isolation, escapism and the itch to turn your back on modern society and light out for the sticks, somewhere the noise can't follow.
Ryan Guldemond produced it himself alongside Ben Kaplan, and the band sound wiry and wound-up, with Jeremy Page on bass, Ali Siadat on drums and Jasmin Parkin in the ranks. The songs lurch between nervy art-pop yelps and campfire sing-alongs, as if the characters keep changing their minds about civilization. "Let's Fall in Love" went out first as a single in July, with the title track as its B-side, and "Bit By Bit" followed in October, backed with "Slip Away", a song that didn't make the final cut.
