France’s most unique fire-driven hard psych duo return with their sophomore masterpiece. Written between 2022 and 2024, “DEUX” marks a bold evolution in Moundrag’s sound – nine meticulously crafted tracks that balance raw power with intricate storytelling, creating their most ambitious work yet.
What makes Moundrag special: Two brothers. No guitars. Just vintage organ, thunderous drums, and hypnotic call-and-response vocals that forge epic soundscapes. Drawing from Deep Purple, King Crimson, and Emerson Lake & Palmer while channeling modern acts like Motorpsycho, they’ve created something fiercely contemporary.
From the hard-hitting assault of “Stormdrummer” to the psychedelic crescendos of “Take Me To The Stars,” DEUX is both a nostalgic nod to 70s prog and a modern manifesto. The album blends dystopian fantasy, sci-fi, and Celtic myth into a cry against old patterns – an invitation to reshape a freer world.
Featuring stunning cover art by contemporary Polish artist Justyna Kozikzak – a surrealist interpretation of Dante’s journey through hell.
