MAMMATUS Biography (at Progarchives):
Taking the name of the heaviest cloud on our planet, the four-piece Santa Cruz band

named Mammatus try to live up to its name. They are a Stoner Rock band taking

influences from Black Sabbath, Hawkwind and many others from the same context of

sound. They were formed in early 2005 and started playing in pubs and living rooms.

They then recorded their debut in their own garage with no money and little resources.

Their sound caught the attention of several record companies and released their self

titled debut in 2006. With an album out people around the world got a taste of what

Mammatus has to deliver. Heavy guitar riffs, improvisations, psychedelic passages,

forest, dragons. You name it, Mammatus has it.

This band is recommended for fans of heavy psychedelic bands like Hawkwind and fans of

the Stoner Rock genre.

"The Coast Explodes" - Album review:
Mammatus's second album "The Coast Explodes" straddles the line between psychedelia

and hard rock while introducing more progressive aspects. The music is heavily

influenced by both the power and complexity of the natural world and the ongoing

battles of light and darkness.

"Excellent Swordfight" is a continuation of the same story told in the debut's "Dragon

of the Deep". "Pierce the Darkness" explores being a light in a dark world. "The

Changing Wind" is a pipe-led psychedelic folk tune that could have been sited by

Ghost's Second Time Around and the shanga vibes of the forest in the Autumn. It

unfurls into the title track which encapsulates the massive fury of the ocean.

PRESS:
"The same heavy, spastic psych as Acid Mothers Temple, Psychic Paramount, Comets on

Fire and Green Milk from the Planet Orange." - Dusted Magazine

"While Mammatus hasn't been around for very long, they deliver on just about every

level. Their selftitled debut draws heavily on the cornerstones of mind warping, heavy

music - Hawkwind, Sleep, Floyd, Sabbath... It's both heavy, soothing, and altogether

engrossing. Bottom line, if you want your head caved in and you want to feel really

good about it, get this..." - StonerRock.com
