Columbus Underground: Kopaz Releases Final Album, Rocks Rumba Tonight (2010)

After a hiatus, Kopaz returned in 2010 to release the long-gestating Teeth Like Cities, which included a release show at Rumba Cafe. Here is an interview the Columbus Underground did with the band back in 2010:
Luckily for us, Kopaz had been writing new songs following Future Radiant Shine prior to their break in ’06. They decided to start recording them at home on their own and on their own terms. Although their interest in the music never faded, time and obligations and other projects intervened, and the emerging record remained unfinished. However, in late 2008, the band hired Jon Chinn to mix one of the recordings, and the project once again picked up steam. Fast forward to the summer of 2010. Teeth Like Cities is complete, and the band is ready to share their songs with the world. The album is a departure from the “pop urgency” of their previous efforts. Instead, Teeth is a beautiful album that “revels in the darkness and mystery of a band on the verge of collapse.”
