Rendez-vous on the Kertonestore for pre-order the album at a special price from 1st to 28th of feb .

OFFICIAL STATEMENT – WORLDWIDE – JANUARY 7th 2010




Dear All,

M.O.P.A. is signing with I AM RECORDINGS. We feel very proud to share the same hallmark as AT THE DRIVE IN, KORN, NORMA JEAN and BLACK LIGHT BURNS… This organization, founded by Ross Robinson, is undoubtedly the most appropriate and pertinent solution for our aims. Ross was one of the first to believe in us. He’s an advocate of a cultural revolution that places new emphasis on the artist, restoring his freedom of choice and development.

This choice allows us to work worldwide with the organizations that are closely involved with M.O.P.A, such as WANGBA RECORDS in China, TRUSTKILL RECORDS and TEAM AATM for the USA, GORDEON in Germany, JERKOV / NOUS PRODUCTIONS / MATHPROMO / INNOVATIVE in France, BRILLIANCE BOOKING for Eastern Europe, INTERNATIONAL MUSIC TALENT and CAVA in Russia, DIVISION RECORDS in Switzerland, BELIEVE DIGITAL for UK and digital, etc…

We hope to be both front-row spectators and actors for this album release. We would like it to be a meeting point with those who listen to us. We are glad to announce several important dates that we are looking forward to:

-The 1st of Februar 2010: BEGINNING OF THE PRE-ORDERS FOR THE COLLECTOR SERIES ALBUM (double vinyl « album » + CD « album » +DVD)

-The 1st of March 2010: WORLD RELEASE OF THE COLLECTOR SERIES ALBUM

-The 15th of March 2010: DIGITAL RELEASE

-The 5th of April 2010: PHYSICAL RELEASE

Thanks to all
“AMEN”…is the title of our album.
See you soon
M.O.P.A.

- Produced by Ross Robinson (The Klaxons, At The Drive In, The Cure)
- Mixed by Ryan Boesch (Eels, Foo Fighters, Helmet, Norma Jean, Ben Harper)

we were talking about a surprise in our last message.
Well here it is: We'll open for Metallica's gig the 7th of July in "Arenes de Nîmes" (France)
So awesome !!! Two differents musical school, but it's like another old childhood's dream...

Last time I went there, I saw Radiohead, and before Rammstein, and before Massive Attack,...
One of the most beautiful venue I ever seen, the arenas are so impressive.


Thank you the romans !!!
And thank you Nous Production.

HI everybody,

It's been a while we didn't post any news on the site.

Sorry about that, we toured a lot since we came back in Europe and we spent lot of time working on business consideration.

It's pretty different compared to the artistic part but it's so essential, in particular nowadays with records crisis...

Well, hope to write beautiful things here very soon...

In the meanwhile,stay in touch, we will come back with a brand new video clip, and God knows we're very proud of it!!!

Take care, MOPA.

We shoot a video a month ago.

So crazy how people involved in its process were enjoyed despite the cold air and the timing running after us !
Thanks to everyone who gave their time, soul and body to make this video happen.

The video is now edited and almost calibrate. And we're very proud of it.
So grateful Ross shared it with people he knows...thanks to him, we now know other incredible people.
Hope to meet them soon, here or in the US.

Hope to share the video with you soon, hope in the next weeks...

It's finally official:
Thanks to Kertone Production, Ross Robinson and his staff will produce our next album.
It begins early July to early September.
We are extremely proud and look forward to working with someone who has such a musical vision and artistic talent. He's like a mentor for the three of us.
You'll be regularly informed of how things are going.
So check Ross Robinson myspace and ours.
Cheers!!!

Further details in "TOUR" section

We are really impatient to announce the greatest experience of our artistic existence, or even human.
But not too hastily, waiting for the formalization before you say more.
However, it seems that rumour already circulating on internet...The loop is looping

We signed with "Jerkov Musiques" (31 Knots, Will Haven, Sleepers ...). It is a great satisfaction to work with this booking agency. They think different and got a fantastic philosophy.
Beautiful gigs in perspective...

You can read very enthusiastic revues in the last Noise Mag( ex Versus) and in the last D-Side Mag. We are the leaving proof that there is no need to buy 8946313 commercials to get reviewed in those mags and we thank them a lot for that.

The tour is coming out with twenty dates spread on the French territory
Have a look on the tour section.
More dates are coming.

For those who get fed up with their urban screen pick, we have got some freezing ones of you.
You can read brand new reviews in the media section.
