The result of nine months locked up with musicians Stephane Fedele (bass),
Thomas Stadnicki (guitars), Lukas Melville (drums) and a series of pounding live shows in Belgium, “Drape” is Mugwump’s second album which fuses the electronic with an occasionally heavy rock feel and outstanding lyrics, all topped off with a French-Belgian-tinged vocal and lyrical topicality. Post-Punk, Indie Pop, Psych & Electronic collide while Geoffroy Mugwump delivers conscious lyrics over nine songs ‘’soundtracking our torments in the Age of Laissez-Faire and Aestheticisation’’.
‘Drape’ is the follow-up to 2015’s debut studio album ‘Unspell’, which boasted many guest vocalists, garnered media plaudits across the board internationally and was supported with live appearances at Benelux, French, UK and Dutch festivals & venues. Taking it further and morphing into a full live band with new members, Mugwump released the ‘Metempsycho EP’ in November 2016 on which Geoffroy made his singing debut.
