Mugimama, Is This Monkey Music?

There's a first time for everything... introducing Ipecac Recordings first singer-songwriter Mugison. Hailing from Westfjords Iceland (a stone's throw from Bjork and Sigur Ros), Mugison is a one-man band. He plays abstract psychedelic melodies intertwined with heart wrenching lyrics conjuring such deep emotions it's unbelievable English isn't his first language. He’s been compared to Tom Waits, Beck, Will Oldham, but Mugison is truly one of a kind. "Mugison wails like a lunatic, cackles hysterically and swears like James Brown with Tourette's. He’s been at #1 in Iceland since Christmas, which goes to show what a lack of daylight combined with vodka can do to people." -Zoo UK
