Mayflower Madame Biography
Mayflower Madame is set to release their highly anticipated third LP "Insight" on November 1st, which will be followed by a string of EU/UK shows. The new album sees them refining their characteristic blend of pulsating post-punk, shimmering shoegaze and atmospheric psych-noir into a sharper and more expansive sonic landscape than ever before. The lead singles, "A Foretold Ecstasy" and "Paint It All in Blue," have already garnered widespread acclaim and extensive radio support, including airtime on BBC 6 Music.
Over the past few years, Mayflower Madame have built a strong reputation far beyond their hometown of Oslo, Norway. Their debut album, "Observed in a Dream" (2016), created a buzz in the indie music press and brought them out on tours across Europe and North America, while the long-awaited sequel, "Prepared for a Nightmare" (2020), further elaborated a sound distinctively their own and earned them rave reviews.
The COVID-19 pandemic struck soon after their sophomore release, making the album’s title eerily appropriate, but in 2022, Mayflower Madame finally returned touring in the UK, France and Eastern Europe. Last year, the band focused on writing new material while also releasing a Deluxe Version of "Prepared for a Nightmare", featuring five new bonus tracks. Their upcoming album "Insight" is launched via their own label Night Cult Records (digital) in collaboration with Up In Her Room (vinyl) and Icy Cold Records (CD).
SOME PRESS QUOTES:
“Mayflower Madame adorn black hearts on the sleeves of their leather jackets with a
sense of pride, and so they should.” (8/10 score) - Under The Radar Magazine
“The love child of post-punk and neo-psychedelia.” (8/10 score) - Classic Rock Magazine
“Wildly addictive mix of post-punk, shoegaze and psychedelia. Utterly superb.” - Louder Than War
“Mayflower Madame makes gorgeously dissonant and urgent post-punk that seamlessly blends with shoegaze to unfurl layer upon layer of gauzy sonics over your ice-cold eardrums.” - CVLT Nation
“Their sneering vocals and wickedly distorted guitar riffs are pure Jesus & Mary Chain, the ominous, echo-drenched atmospherics recall Sisters of Mercy, and the overall and very palpable sense of fear and dread harken back to Faith-era Robert Smith.” – BlackBook
“Deeply atmospheric psychedelia.” – Clash Magazine
"If you need a Sergio Leone movie done over with a post-punk soundtrack, we think we’ve found your band." - Stereo Embers Magazine
