Experimental Icelandic rock band MAMMÚT have lingered in the shadows for a long time. With their fifth album Ride The Fire looming on the horizon, 'Pow Pow' is its low-key explosive fourth taste. Eerie and sad in the most beautiful way possible as nuances of Portishead sneak through layers of atmospheric synths and string sounds. Drippy samples and delayed snare strikes shake the vast soundscape as vocalist Katrína Mogensen utter quiet and tauntingly. She explains: “‘Pow Pow’ is an observer, watching a being from afar, asking questions on what happened. It's our sweet tune about roughness and what seems hopelessness.” Ride The Fire will arrive on the 23rd of October. -Holly Mullineaux
