Claude says:Paul Meany's Mutemath project emerged from a 2002 long-distance collaboration mixing sample-based electronica with vintage rock gear and Rhodes keyboards, eventually expanding into a full band before Meany continued it solo. Without It is sleek, propulsive alt-rock with an electronic undertow — the title track and "Polite" hit hardest. You picked it up in early 2026, and those two songs still do most of the work.
