YUR MUM – Duality – LP – Vinyl

LP – Black Vinyl.

London-based rock duo, Yur Mum, is set to release their highly anticipated album, “Duality,” on April 30, 2024. “Duality” serves as the sequel to their 2021 LP, “Tropical Fuzz,” and encapsulates the band’s essence as a fusion of contrasts Female meets male, Europe meets South America, and rock meets Brazilian music. Anelise, the bassist and vocalist, expresses, “It’s a total yin and yang. We’re embracing our differences and blending them together to create something unique.”

The album features recent singles ‘Say Say‘ and ‘New Beginnings,’ which gained recognition on BBC’s 6 Music and Radio 1, along with Spotify editorial playlists. The duo’s Brazilian roots are exposed in tracks like ‘Hands To The Sky‘, ‘Anhang‘, Caf, and Snakes Dont Fly, featuring Myura Amara from PollyPikPocketz.

In a bold move, Yur Mum has opted for an independent release, expressing pride in creating the album they envisioned. Collaborating with producer Alex Gordon, known for his work with bands like Tigercub and CLT DRP. “Duality” promises a wild mix of beats and melodies, rocking out with fuzzed-up riffs. Yur Mum’s iconic bass and drums have levelled up, bringing an even bigger sound. Beyond the high-energy tunes, the band explores themes like faith, guilt, existentialism, mental health, toxic people, classism, and immigrant catharsis.

The album cover, designed by Fabio Couto, portrays a fusion of the duo in an androgynous and striking composition. Fabio says it was captured DIY style with an old smartphone camera. Yur Mum, consisting of Anelise Kunz and Fabio Couto, stands out in the two-piece band scene with their distinctive Fuzz Punk Rock sound and South American influences.
