  • Bio

    ...... ..Myspace Editor.... ..Pimp MySpace.. .... RIP AMANDA LATER, friend and fellow experimenting artist, we will never forget you. MUGWUMP is noise. We use a variety of instruments and software to come up with a DIY, spontaneous sound, all recent Mugwump songs are improvisations and experiments. This and all work we do, is dedicated to the memory of Amanda Later. "Time has a way of softening the edges of raw cultural excitement. It's difficult for us to remember now the fervor we felt at the end of the 20th century for finding strange beauty in the harshest of landscapes. We sought peace in the whispers of the dead...we caged ourselves within walls of mechanized death, surrounded by the well-oiled whirr and clack of weaponry both psychic and physical...and we found empowerment for change in the cries of the tortured and abused, and finally, ultimately, in silences...most of all. For it was only in the gulfs between notes could each of us meet that which we truly feared." -- Tim Thomson in the liner notes for Beast of Dreams, Album of the same name by The Pain Teens <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/oBW3ic_VL-A" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Mugwump would not exist if it were not for the continued inspiration of such visionaries as Pier Paolo Pasolini, Coil, Throbbing Gristle, Alejandro Jodorowsky, Fernando Arrabal, Karlheinz Stockhausen, and Luigi Russolo LOVE IS THE LAW

    " When I hear a soprano uttering her vibrant and melodious notes, my eyes are filled with a hidden flame, flashes of pain shoot across them, and the burst of alarm-bell and cannonade resound in my ears. What can be the reason for this deep loathing of everything related to man?"--Comte de Lautreamont
