MUTANK To Play Metalelujah Fest In Quebec City

Wrapping up their cross Canada tour last month with metal legends ANNIHILATOR and Australia's MASON, Montreal thrashers MUTANK will be returning to Quebec City on August 4th to perform at Metalelujah Fest. The two day festival will feature bands from the Quebec metal scene such as Morgue, Insurrection, Ghoulunatics, Warsenal, Eternal Judgment, Accursed Spawn and more. Full details can be found HERE!

MUTANK is performing in support of their new EP "W.H.A.T.S.T.H.A.T." released this past June via Boonsdale Records. The five track demolisher was produced with Topon Das (Fuck The Facts) and is a step up from what people have heard from them thus far. The EP follows their debut cassette EP "M.E.C.H. Metal" and is a taste of what's to come from the band's full length planned to be unleashed later this year. The title of the EP "W.H.A.T.S.T.H.A.T." stands for "We Have Alottta Thrash Songs That Have Abbreviated Titles" and came to be first as joke for the band.

Vocalist Stephen Reynolds comments:

"I just thought it would be funny to force an acronym for ‘what’s that?’ and I came up with ‘We Have Alottta Thrash Songs That Have Abbreviated Titles’. From there we came up with the concept of an EP with a bunch of forced acronym titles. The EP itself was written somewhat conceptually with the individual songs being very short thrash songs that come together to make one longer progressive thrash track, which harkens back to the title since we don’t even know what it is!"

"W.H.A.T.S.T.H.A.T." is now available for CD order and digital download at the following link: HERE! plus all major online retailers such as iTunes, Amazon, etc.

“they play good-natured thrash a la Overkill and Exodus… perfectly serviceable and enjoyable, definitely more effective when they are playing fast.” – Decibel Mag

“MUTANK is like a Coffee Crisp bar: crunchy as hell, and without any gooey center.” – Bucket List Music Reviews

“their hybrid thrash, traditional, speed metal makes for a great heavy experience” – We Love Metal

"Killer drumming, awesome bass hooks, great rhythm & furious sounding vocals. It’s a statement of intent from Mutank. That they are not to be underestimated & written off as just another ‘thrash throwback’." - Games, Brains & A Headbanging Life

"They have a lot of thrashing songs that have abbreviated titles, and they kick some serious ass with their old school music and hardcore attitude." - The Headbanging Moose

"Mutank have gotten creative with each song on the album, by coming up acronyms to fit the title of the album, they describe their sound as a “T-rex skateboarding down a volcano”. If your a fan of old school Overkill, Megadeath or Exodus or if you just want a fast and thrash album check it out" - Canadian Beats

"“W.H.A.T.S.T.H.A.T.” is one of those records that you seem a band jamming out in their garage and eventually an audience just gathers because their thrash, punk, and a bit of tongue-in-cheek causes the listener to pay attention to what Mutank has to say." - MUEN Mag

"Fast riffs, Heavy tempos crazy yelling.. its got all you’ve asked for. A mix of Suicidal Tendencies Punk/Thrash debut, Nuclear Assault fast moshing killer speed assault…a great funny and entertaining mini album for all beer drinkers fans of Tankard and ready to get into the moshpit 100/100." - The Metal Mag

"grab you battlejack, studs and spandex trousers and feel like you are back in 1985." - Lords of Metal

"Listen to this EP. Buy it. Make love to it. Pass it down to your children. For fans of thrash and underground metal, this release is sure to pacify any feelings of rage that might be nestled deep within your cranium. Enjoy it (I did)." - AEA Fanzine
