The Mammuthus Sign to Sliptrick Records; New Album Due Next Year

When perusing the interwebs to chase down useful information and/or audio on The Mammuthus, one will want to keep an eye out. There’s an Argentinian thrash band by the same name, and — closer stylistically — a fuzz rock outfit from New Zealand who released a debut earlier this year. This The Mammuthus — and the ‘The’ is a distinguishing factor, if not to search engines — are from Trollhättan, in Sweden, and have a debut out called Forever Tree that they’ll follow-up with a new full-length in 2021 on Sliptrick Records.

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if Sliptrick reissued the first record as well, since it doesn’t seem to be streaming anywhere at this point. There are a couple tracks on the band’s YouTube though, and they’re older, but you still get some semblance of where the band might be coming from in a clean, oldschool approach to catchy, heavy doom rock. Positioned now as more psychedelic, I have to wonder how that might manifest in the new material, but again, I’m just going by what I hear below. You can check it out for yourself, of course.

Sliptrick Records Welcome Swedish Psychedelics THE MAMMUTHUS

Out of the depths of the long Swedish winters, The Mammuthus first saw the light of day back in 2014. Five dudes with a common taste in stoner rock music and good melodies, gathered and started growing beards, tusks and creativity together in a dark but welcoming place that would be known as the The Mammuthus cave.

The sound of the group soon sounded over the hills and fields of Trollhättan and after two EP’s, Khatanga and The Herd Is Gathering, the band teamed up with producer Gustav Ydenius and recorded their first full-length album Forever Tree in 2019, live in the studio.

Musically, the trademark of The Mammuthus is an extremely and impressively seamless blend of styles; doom moments, hard rock sections and blues elements wash over the listener in an even flow. It is riff-based and heavy, yet melodic and soulful. The Mammuthus has been sweating in their furs during the last months, recorded a bunch of new songs, and are now ready to rumble the earth once more with the worldwide release of their forthcoming sophomore album due out in 2021 via Sliptrick Records.

The Mammuthus are:
Joachim Åkerman – Vocals
Mikael “Lyris” Karlsson – Guitar
Simon Wärnén – Drums
Rolf Norling – Bass
Kalle Edh – Guitar
