Sounds | Modder, Mount Frequency


Moddervette stoner/psych/sludge/doom met een dikke knipoog naar oervaders Sleep, maar dan zonder een brulboei erbij. Mount Frequency (mèt 'c') sleept zich daadwerklijk voort alsof de muzikanten door een smeuïge brij moeten kruipen. Voor de release van het debuut slaan twee alomgerespecteerde labels de handen in elkaar. Wanneer ook de rest van de songs raak zijn, dan zullen we er proper uitzien onder al die smurrie.

Modder verschijnt op 3 december via Consouling Sounds en Lay Bare Recordings.

Modder started out as a passion project between guitarist, songwriter & producer Mathlovsky and his longtime companion Gregory Simons on drums. In November 2020 they released their massive first single ‘Mudslinger’, an impressive 21 minute long riff-fest referencing artists the likes of Sleep and Meshuggah. Following the release of ‘Mudslinger’ bass player Maurice van der Es, guitarist Maxime Rouquart and synth wizard Simon Felix joined the duo to extend the sonic mayhem into a tight and pounding live band. Despite being completely new to the scene they have already managed a spot at this year’s edition of Desertfest Belgium.

The self-titled album releases December 3rd 2021 through Lay Bare Recordings & Consouling Sounds. The record’s sonic palate consists of riffs that are designed to make your neck break, supported by thundering bass lines and grooving drums. Surrounded by industrial samples and synths they forge a unique sound in the sludge landscape that Modder finds themselves in.
