Maggot Heart - Mercy Machine is out everywhere now

The new album from Berlin-based rock trio MAGGOT HEART, Mercy Machine - is out everywhere now, and both prior to and since its release has been picking up accolades from press and fans alike. MAGGOT HEART is the brainchild of Linnéa Olsson, and Mercy Machine had its release via her own label, Rapid Eye, on July 10. Order the album here.

The city as a throbbing organism is one of the fundamental themes of MAGGOT HEART; explored deliciously on several songs on both 2017’s City Girls EP and Dusk To Dusk (2018). The machinery of the night runs on the steam of many bodies - and its essence is captured now on Mercy Machine. Locked inside a prison of flesh, the spirit will not soar, only in unity with the body can divine alchemy be achieved.

The album was recorded at Studio Cobra in Stockholm, with Martin “Konie” Ehrencrona (Tribulation, Refused, Viagra Boys) co-producing, and artwork was created by Obliteration drummer, Kristian Valbo. Mercy Machine is a ferocious rock album about sex, death, and the pursuit of freedom. Its sound may appeal to fans of Voivod, The Stooges and The Jesus Lizard. But make no mistake, MAGGOT HEART is a unique entity, entirely of its own making.
