The video for "Blood Pressure," which is climbing the charts at Alternative Radio, premiered last week on MTV, MTV2, MTVu, MTV Hits and MTV.com.

It was edited entirely by drummer Darren King. Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cv2mjAgFTaI .

"Blood Pressure" and Odd Soul are already receiving critical praise. The NY Post called the track "fantastic" and Alternative Press praised the album as "brimming with raw, bluesy riffs and psychedelic guitar squeals...MUTEMATH explore emotional depths both sonically and lyrically, bringing a new sense of urgency to their music. 4 ½ stars." The New Orleans band is currently previewing songs off the album on a headlining tour.
