Mammoth Penguins are a 3-piece indie powerhouse, showcasing the songwriting and vocal talents of Emma Kupa (Standard Fare) backed up by the noisiest rhythm section in indie pop. May 2024 sees the release of their fourth album Here on Fika Recordings. After 2019’s big, bold and confident There’s No Fight We Can’t Both Win, and the initial shock of the global pandemic cancelling a trip to SXSW in 2020, the band returned to the studio in the summer of 2021 to start recording. The new record leans into a raw pop-punk power-trio sound more than ever, with a deep growl in layered guitars and bursts of percussion and harmony. The songs and artwork explore themes about finding a place for yourself and familiarity with people and places. Although it turns back towards a classic three-piece sound, the band weren’t restricted by that palette, adding finishing touches of percussion, extra guitars and backing vocals in short bursts in a garden shed, and also bringing in gorgeous strings to sweeten the title track. The sound builds on the band’s first album, Hide and Seek, which was released with the much-loved and sorely missed Fortuna POP! in 2015. The follow-up LP John Doe in 2017 was an ambitious concept album, exploring the feelings of loss and anger at a man who fakes his own death only to return years later, expanding well beyond the 3-piece rock‘n’roll template, with washes of strings, synths and samples. The ‘Penguins have been smashing it at some high-profile support slots in the lead up to this album release, including at Allo Darlin’s joyous reunion at Islington Assembly Hall (Oct 2023) and Muncie Girls last ever London show (Dec 2023). They play the Leicester Indiepop all-dayer and Wales Goes Pop in March, before heading out on tour in support of the new album in May. Those big singalong choruses need your voice shouting back from the crowd with joy and defiance. Mammoth Penguins are Emma Kupa (guitar, vocals), Mark Boxall (bass, vocals) and Tom Barden (drums, vocals). Reminiscent of the pop melodies of The Beths, the indie dissonance of Land of Talk, and the guitar forward slacker rock of Weezer, Mammoth Penguins marry heart-ache indiepop with spiky guitars and Emma’s frank confessional songwriting. “wonderfully awkward indie pop with a literate flair, sounding a lot like a Weezer record or even a more feminine Wedding Present” Clash “eminently relatable earworms” Brooklyn Vegan “one of the finest examples of simple and true indie rock around” All Music “her characterful voice still carrying masses of charm and the messier, grungey approach bringing a strength all of its own, aided by a clutch of cheerful hooks and riffs that contrast nicely with lyrics dealing mostly with heartbreak and misery” Drowned In Sound Artist Mammoth Penguins Genre Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label Fika Recordings Buying Options 1LP Coloured Vinyl Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country UK Track Listings Species I Know The Signs Flyers Blue Plaque Everything That I Write Here Nothing and Everything Help Yourself Old Friends Lost Friends Success A Plea For Kindness Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Mammoth Penguins and more from Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo View Product Quick View Mammoth Penguins There Is No Fight We Cant Both Win Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo | Fika Recordings | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes Download Code Released 23rd April 2019 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Mammoth Penguins There Is No Fight We Cant Both Win £15.00 Genre: Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label: Fika Recordings SKU: FIKA070LP Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes Download Code Released Date: 23rd April 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Mammoth Penguins Hide And Seek Rock And Pop | Fortuna Pop! | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes Download Code Released 7th July 2015 £13.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Mammoth Penguins Hide And Seek £13.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Fortuna Pop!
