"I don't remember now"
It's hard to say how Mummise Guns actually
came to be a thing. What is certain is that Tracy Bellaries and Matt
Ridout had shared a flat for a while and were often speaking about
forming a group to have an outlet for some music that Tracy had
written, but above and beyond that initial idea the rest is slightly
hazy, or perhaps murky is the better word.
Also very much a fact rather than a
fiction is that the name was cooked up at Supernormal Festival in 2016
when Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs bassist Johnny Hedley uttered
the phrase 'Look at these guns, Mummise Guns' when everyone was
hanging around a tree swing (this sounds like we're making it up now,
but honest it happened, we think). Tracy and Matt immediately adopted
it despite protestations that it was a completely daft thing to do.
Thus, the band Mummise Guns was born.
Where, why and how the rest of the group
got involved is not 100% clear, but the initial lineup of Tracy, Matt,
Adam, Cleaver and Al prepped three of Tracy's songs and three of
Matt's into something solid enough to record by early 2017 and the
band dropped into Wayne Adam's (Petbrick, Big Lad) Bear Bites Horse
Studios in East London to track their debut self-titled LP Mummise
Guns (Riot Season REPOSE094LP), with Al and Adam adding further
recordings at Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs guitarist Sam Grant's
Blank Studios in Newcastle.
After that, it's safe to say things got
busy. Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs took over the airwaves with a
series of incredible LP's on Rocket Recordings, Luminous Bodies wrote
and recorded an absolute belter of a second album for Box Records,
Casual Nun dropped a couple of full-length smashers and a split with
Bruxa Maria on Box Records and Hominid Sounds, Ghold released a killer
LP on Crypt of the Wizard, and Black Shape and Michael both dropped
some classics on Hominid Sounds and Cracked Ankles respectively.
Yet, throughout all of this intense
activity, the Mummise Guns LP lurked in the shadows like a malevolent
beast just waiting for the right moment. That moment was early 2019
when everyone regrouped at Bear Bites Horse, including new addition
Gordon Watson, for some final overdubs and mixing. And here it is,
2020, and the proof of all this hard graft is finally available to
you.
So here are six tracks of noise-fuelled
amphetamine that is perfect to drive all the right people from your
house and attract all the wrong ones in. Play it loud.
