I piemontesi UFOMAMMUT sono da più di vent’anni uno dei nomi più importanti della psichedelia mondiale. Riconosciuti in tutto il mondo come i pionieri del sound psichedelico, sono finalmente in procinto di tornare al Mostovna sulle ali del loro nuovo album intitolato ‘Fenice’ (2023, Neurot Recordings).
Gli sloveni Omega Sun, stoner rock da Koper, dal loro debutto nel 2013 hanno condiviso il palco con band come gli Unida, Yawning Man, Dopethrone, Kylesa, Pallbearer, Stoner Kebab. A settembre hanno pubblicato il loro secondo album ‘Roadkill’
Ufomammut formed in the late 90s by Poia (guitars, FXs) and Urlo (bass, , FXs, synths), rising from the ashes of past band Judy Corda, together with Vita (drums).
For more than two decades, UFOMAMMUT has combined the heaviness and majesty of dynamic riff worship with a nuanced understanding of psychedelic tradition and history in music, creating a cosmic, futuristic, and technicolor sound destined for absolute immersion. The new album Fenice (‘phoenix’ in Italian) represents endless rebirth and the ability to start again after everything seems doomed. The album (out via Neurot Recordings) is the first recording with new drummer Levre joining Poia and Urlo, marking a new chapter in the band’s history and unveiling a more intimate, free sound for the group.
While the band is renowned for their psychedelic travels into the far reaches of the cosmos, Fenice is a much more introspective listening experience. The album was conceived as a single concept track, divided in six facets of this inward-facing focus. Sonic experimentations abound in the exploration of this central theme; synths and experimental vocal effects are featured more prominently than ever before as the band push themselves ever further into the uncharted territory of their very identity.
Each oscillation of this extraordinary album feels inevitable. The members of UFOMAMMUT are, after all, masters of their craft, and when it comes to creating enveloping sonic journeys into the unknown, it’s their uninhibited sense of exploration that breaches new sonic ground. Fenice is the sound of a band whose very essence has been rejuvenated and are welcoming the chance to create music in the way they know best; by unfolding carefully and attentively, by melding those extreme dynamics which render Fenice as a living and breathing creature, and by writing gargantuan riffs that herald their very rebirth.
Poia and Urlo are both founding members of rock ‘n’ roll graphic design collective Malleus, and of the label Supernatural Cat (who most recently put out the solo albums of Urlo, under the name, The Mon).
Like any good psychedelic trip, the music of Ufomammut has always been inextricably intertwined with visual art. Poia describes longer compositions ‘like a painting’ as if to reinforce the relevance and importance of visual art in Ufomammut’s music.
Doombo self titled EP is the first studio production of the band, tracked and recorded at the drummer’s home studio and mixed by sound engineer Alessandro Perosa.
Formed in 2022 the band’s lineup of drummer Ivan Kralj, bass player Ivan Rongione and guitarist/singer Pablo Scarpa felt the need to write its own material right from the start. They discovered they had a mutual appreciation of stoner doom music in particular, as reflected in the 4 songs of this EP, featuring influences from bands like Sleep, Black Sabbath, Boris, Mastodon, Melvins and The Sword.
The setlist presents titles such as ‘Kebab Pt.2’, ‘Multidimensional Invasion’, ‘Funk Lung’ and ‘From Hell’. The whole EP was recorded on tape, which contributes to give the record a vintage vibe. Low-tuned fuzzy riffs, roaring bass tones and the powerful drum playing makes Doombo a mixture of influences ranging from classic rock to doom metal.
On July 15th they’ll be playing their first gig opening at StonerKras Festival in Prosecco (Trieste) alongside Nick Olivieri’s Mondo Generator, 1000 Mods, Margarita Witch Cult and many more.
