Biography
Mamuthones is a psychedelic rock project from Padua, Italy, founded in 2007 by Alessio Gastaldello (ex-drummer of Jennifer Gentle). Helped by different musicians, over the years he put out several works, including a collaboration with Fabio Orsi released in 2008 on A Silent Place, and the full-length albums "Sator" (2009) and "Mamuthones" (2011), both on Boring Machines.
The last Mamuthones work is "Collisions Vol. 4", a split album with Evil Blizzard and part of the "Collisions" series by English label Rocket Recordings. It explores the ying and yang of an approach whereby overt post-punk and psychedelic influences meld with with esoteric vibrations and irreverent attitude, challenging bands, listener, and label alike in an intimidating and invigorating assault on the senses.
