If you’re a Barry’s Bootcamp instructor
Take note: MISSIO will probably find a way onto your playlist.
If you’re angry:
“Middle Fingers” is your new anthem.
If you’re a film editor:
“Bottom of the Deep Blue Sea” is 100% trailer material. Get on it.
If you’re into Star Wars:
Check out MISSIO’s “KDV” which stands for Killing Darth Vader. And they do it with a kick drum. True story.
If you want to look like the band:
No worries here. They all wear the same thing: Hoodie and backwards cap. Grow some facial hair, wear that and you’ll fit right in.
If you’re a fan of Lana Del Rey:
You’re in luck: MISSIO has covered her classic “West Coast.”
If you’re none of these things:
Hang tight. If the first four songs released are any indication, MISSIO has enough variety for everyone.

I have a routine when it comes to shows at Rough Trade. I enjoy a short train ride on the L from my office. I stop at Vinnie’s for a slice and slowly meander down 9th Street in Williamsburg. I peruse the stacks, including the bargain bins. I say hello to the doorman and security guards. I order a Sixpoint IPA. And I settle in for a fantastic show.
