There's no denying 2014 is going to be the year of The Glitch Mob.

After months of conjecture and online rumours, the legendary instrumentalist/producer trio, comprised of Justin Boreta (aka Boreta), Ed Ma (aka edIT) and Joshua Mayer (aka Ooah), just announced one of 2014's most anticipated electronic music albums, Love Death Immortality, to be released on their own Glass Air Records.

The band also just announced they will be performing for their 2nd year at Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival 2014 for the Palm Springs fest's most talked-about lineup yet. The Glitch Mob will be performing live at Coachella on Friday, April 11th and 18th.

To promote their forthcoming album, The Glitch Mob will also be kicking off a U.S. tour this March including headlining spots at Ultra Music Festival and Buku Music + Art Project and many more to be announced in the upcoming weeks.

Ever since their album announce on December 17th, The Glitch Mob have remained one of the most talked-about bands worldwide. Upon the release of their first single and accompanying music video "Can't Kill Us", their YouTube views soared to 200K+ views in less than 2 hours, and is now nearing 500K+ views.

Following its release and throughout the month of December, the single topped the Spotify Charts as the #1 Most Viral Track and remains in the top 10 Viral Tracks on Spotify this month.

The Glitch Mob's single hit #1 in the iTunes Electronic Chart, top 10 in the UK, Europe and Australia, and ranked #1 for electronic album pre-sales. It is clear that Love Death Immortality is one of the most anticipated albums of 2014.

In an era of disposable dance-music singles, The Glitch Mob's forthcoming LP was refreshingly created with the intent to flow as an album - one designed to be listened to from start to finish, taking the listener on an aural voyage in the process. The Glitch Mob is itching to take Love Death Immortality to its natural home on the stage, in all its crowd-pleasing glory, and that's exactly what's going to happen when The Glitch Mob kick off their biggest tour yet in March 2014. Accompanied by massive production from Martin Phillips of Bionic League - who's developed staggering concert visuals for the likes of Daft Punk, Kanye West, and Deadmau5, expect The Glitch Mob to dominate festivals and large venues well throughout the new year.

"We're taking a more hands-on approach to the live show this time around," says EDit.

"The whole experience is going to be personally curated by us. We're designing really cool video-interaction apps to integrate the experience, really letting the audience in on what we're doing onstage." - via Magnum PR.
