The
Clean - Mister Pop - Out This Week on Arch Hill
Recordings
Arch Hill is super pleased to be releasing the
album “Mister Pop” by the Clean - in New Zealand and
Australia. The album is also released on Merge in the USA
and Morr Music in Europe.
Voted by journalists at the NZ Listener as New Zealand’s all time greatest band and described by John Campbell as “one of the greatest New Zealand bands of all time” the Clean need little introduction to most local music fans. However, while they are well known and well loved at home, as the below biography illustrates, they are equally appreciated from afar
Mister Pop was beautifully recorded and mixed by Tex Houston in Dunedin except Back in the Day - recorded by Gary Olsen. Mastered by Jeff Lipton in Boston
