Mission of Burma was an American post-punk band from Boston, Massachusetts. The group formed in 1979 with Roger Miller on guitar, Clint Conley on bass, Peter Prescott on drums, and Martin Swope contributing audiotape manipulation and acting as the band’s sound engineer. In this initial lineup, Miller, Conley, and Prescott all shared singing and songwriting duties. Mission of Burma reformed in 2002, with Bob Weston replacing Swope. The band released four more albums—ONoffON, The Obliterati, The Sound the Speed the Light, and Unsound—before splitting up in June 2020.

rdfs:comment	Mission of Burma est un groupe de post-punk américain, originaire de Boston, dans le Massachusetts. Il est composé du guitariste Roger Miller, qui avait fait ses armes dans plusieurs groupes dont l'avant-gardiste Sproton Layer, du bassiste Clint Conley et du batteur Peter Prescott, avec Bob Weston (à l'origine Martin Swope) comme ingénieur du son et à la manipulation des bandes magnétiques. Ils furent tout d'abord actifs entre 1979 et 1983, puis se reforment en 2002. Miller, Conley et Prescott se partagent le chant et la composition des chansons, le travail de Miller restant de façon générale prédominant.

(en) Mission of Burma – amerykańska grupa postpunkowa z Bostonu w stanie Massachusetts. Jej skład stanowią gitarzysta Roger Miller, basista Clint Conley, perkusista Peter Prescott, oraz Bob Weston (wcześniej Martin Swope) jako osoba od efektów dźwiękowych i inżynier dźwięku. Byli aktywni w latach 1979–1983, następnie powrócili w 2002. Miller, Conley i Prescott dzielą między siebie śpiewanie i pisanie piosenek, choć Miller jest na tym polu najbardziej aktywny. Kompozycja Conleya, „That's When I Reach For My Revolver”, jest prawdopodobnie najbardziej znanym utworem grupy. (pl) Mission of Burma is een postpunk band uit Boston, Verenigde Staten, opgericht in 1979. De eerste opnamen werden uitgebracht op het label Ace of Hearts Records uit Boston. Ondanks het initiële succes van de groep heeft zij maar kort bestaan, doordat gitarist Roger Miller last kreeg van tinnitus als gevolg van het luide volume van de groep. De nummers werden voornamelijk geschreven door Roger Miller en Clint Conley, die elk een eigen stijl hanteerden. De nummers van Miller zijn veelal onorthodox, terwijl de nummers van Conley veel toegankelijker zijn. Enkele nummers zijn later gecoverd door onder anderen Moby en R.E.M.. (nl) Mission of Burma — американская рок-группа, образовавшаяся в 1979 году в Бостоне, штат Массачусетс, и исполнявшая экспериментальный панк-/постпанк с элементами нойз-рока. В первый состав группы вошли Роджер Миллер (англ. Roger Miller, гитара), Клинт Конли (англ. Clint Conley, бас-гитара), Питер Прескотт (англ. Peter Prescott, ударные) и Мартин Своп (англ. Martin Swope, студийные эффекты).. Используя частые смены темпа, необычнyю для рок-музыки размерность и последовательности аккордов, «артовые, но без претенциозности» Mission of Burma заметно расширили стилистические рамки панк-рока (сохранив при этом изначальную агрессивность) и приобрели репутацию одной из ведущих групп американского постпанка.
