Noise-/hard-/alternative rock band MAGGOT HEART takes their acclaimed third album "HUNGER" on the road for a few selected European shows & festivals in May. Frontwoman Linnea Olsson was recently described as "one of the most distinctive voices in heavy music" by Bandcamp Daily (who compared "HUNGER" to Patti Smith, Motörhead and The Birthday Party alike). Presenting their unique take on rock music through poetry, rawness, dissonance and skilled songwriting - the trio creates an intimate type of aggression not to be missed.

Get on yr knees & open wide; our new album “HUNGER” is out today!

Perfectly represented by the bow and arrow, there has been a lot of tension in the making of this record, now finally a release. I started writing some of these songs around the same time of the making of our 2021 EP but the process was stalled over and over by mental health issues, chronic pain and scrambling for survival post-pandemic… It was already late into 2022 when things finally started to take shape at rehearsals and we locked into a momentum of productivity - just to be thwarted by me having to have emergency neck surgery, an extruded disc was crushing a nerve going out my arm and into my left hand.

We postponed recording and then while in recovery we wrapped up pre-production and entered the studio. I spent mornings in physio therapy and the afternoons recording. To this day I can still not feel my arm 100%, but we pushed through. What you hear are live takes, bar a few leads. We produced ourselves, with the great engineering of our friend Torben Utecht. We played on our own amps and drums, in a studio in our home city of Berlin. Uno and Liv are not only playing their hearts out but they also conjured vocal takes from me that I didn’t think I had in me. It was intense and focused days. I also feel it’s by far the most ”together” we have worked on an album. Drums and bass are taking a centre role both sonically and in arrangements on many of the tracks. We were prepared and it paid off. It was mixed remotely and in only four days by Ben Greenberg who gave it a fantastic sound, in that glorious space on the border of our comfort zone. Carl Saff sealed the deal with his mastering touch.

Writing-wise, I thought more in terms of full songs than riff by riff this time - a bit more to the core, simpler, yet bigger. Half of the lyrics came very late, but thoughts on hunger has been omnipresent in my life since always. As someone with an appetite, for both creation and destruction (and distraction). As a survivor. As a percieved piece of meat. I did not hold back in any of these lyrics, and resided in a lucid place writing them. Looking through them now they invoke many things, if you connect with them they will do the same in you! That way we will be linked in the true colours of magic that music creates.

All in all it’s a great rock album, anybody make those anymore???

So much goes into this music. Every drop of me, spilled. If you can taste even a tiny part of that on the other side, it will all be filled up again in no time. The arrow will meet its goal in divine trajectory.
Thank you to the team: Ricky at Rapid Eye & Swamp, Wade Black, Marco Portello & Giorgio Salmoiraghi at Swamp Booking, Svart Records, Torben Utecht, Benjamin Greenberg, Dirk at Studio X, .saff, Jan Groppel, Lars Zander, Fabien De Menou, Victor Puigcerver, Affe Piran, Ryan & Overrun Booking, Tekla Valy, Inna, John Finne, Sarah Ben Hardouze, Dave US / THEM group, Daniel CZ, James Sherry/Division, friends and family in Berlin & beyond. A special thanks to Mat McNerney for the active support over the years and for being a liaison in this process.

And to everyone of you who care enough to listen, it is never taken for granted.

On the axis of desire/desperation, “HUNGER” is dedicated to bingers, purgers, night nurses, ashtray boys & moonshine girls, arrows, bows & bullseyes. Eyes on the prize, one meal at a time. Stay hungry ### Linnéa

17/07/2023

When we (Linnea & Ricky) started Rapid Eye it was with collaboration and exchange in mind. Could we maybe make something more of an artistic platform to inspire and connect, rather than follow a traditional model of a record label? This is an ongoing process, that has included a collaborative live album by the Brazilian bands RAKTA and DEAFKIDS, and a split EP between OKKULTOKRATI and MAGGOT HEART. Genres and borders crossed alike.

In this spirit, we are very happy to co-release the new MAGGOT HEART album with the Finnish cult label SVART Records; who is one of very few imprints of its kind with such an active release schedule while still staying true to independent values with respect to the artist.

The blue vinyl of “HUNGER” is exclusive to the Rapid Eye webshop and the MAGGOT HEART Bandcamp - you won’t find it anywhere else and it’s ultra limited to 400 copies. You can get the other two vinyl variants of the first pressing - on clear and black vinyl - through SVART. We’ll both carry the CD, and digital is available on Bandcamp. Whichever version you pick up, you’re supporting independent artistry directly ✊

Pre-orders are open now! “HUNGER” is out September 29th

True Language” - the second single off the Children debut EP ”Counterfeit Fire” is now streaming everywhere, and reaffirms the notion that the kids are most definitely not alright.

https://ccchildren.bandcamp.com/track/true-language

Says vocalist Tim Nagel about this sinister noise rock track:

”Control and purpose, words and holes, obsessions and the empty space at their tail-end. Mere laughing matters or the cradle of True Language - you decide”

”Counterfeit Fire” is out September 23 on and available for pre-order via Bandcamp and the RE webshop. Black vinyl. 300 copies. 45 rpm.

To celebrate this release, CHILDREN will be making their live debut on September 23 at A-bahn in Berlin, sharing the stage with INNENSTADTFRONT and M. TAKARA & CARLA BOREGAS. No sleep ’til Autobahn 🔥

Wheel of Stagnation”, the first single off the upcoming Children EP “Counterfeit Fire” is now premiering via New Noise Magazine. Pre-orders are open!

At last, CHILDREN crawl out of their crib of obscurity, where they have been dwelling in the Berlin underground for years in preparation of this debut EP.

Get ready for a frictional force of angular rock - barely hanging by threads of jazz, proto punk and 1990’s noise rock, sewing together what is a both free-form and repetitive wet blanket of existential dread. Hitting the mark somewhere between THE STOOGES, SCRATCH ACID and free jazz - this release is also undoubtedly coloured by its birthplace Berlin; cold yet wild, limitless within its sharply edged box.

“Wheel of Stagnation” is a bleak banger, featuring cutting lyrics, a desperate saxophone played by Jeremy Coubrough and Gottfrid Åhman (In Solitude, Pågå) in a mental meltdown guitar solo.

The core members of CHILDREN are Tim Nagel and Ivan Krasnov. Playing drums on this track is Roy Chen.

The four-track EP is out September 23 in a limited edition of 300 copies 🔥
