Mutineer is a three piece rock ensemble working out of Somerville, MA. Mutineer is imperative in the ferocity of its instrumentation, but interrogative in its use of dynamics. Most of our songs are through-composed and do not repeat passages, as we aim to tell stories through our instruments alone. The namesake of the band is based in the idea that more of us ought to be inciting mutinous affairs. This philosophy of upheaval is meant to represent the sudden realization that nothing NEED be static or unfulfilling: rock music, our relationships, our careers, etc. Instead, we can posit ourselves toward creativity and finding new norms. We encourage everyone to stage a mutiny against anything keeping them from being themselves, and better for the ones they love.

"Kind King makes instrumental music that is at once strangely familiar yet also idiosyncratic, even alien - like a distant cousin you didn’t know you had, but you can immediately tell you’re related. Combining the liminal soundscapes of post-rock with the vocabulary & adventurism of jazz fusion, the live result is a cinematic, psychedelic maelstrom that changes each time it’s conjured.”

Strange Pains:
"Like a more melancholy Guided By Voices, “Garden Grows Regardless” churns along with a powerful undertow, Billings’ lyrics nearly disappearing under the surf." - Stereogum
Strange Pains is the latest project from Ted Billings(Age Rings, Philosophical Zombie), blending punk, alt rock and electronic elements. Billings explores lyrical themes of memory, dreams, mortality and meaning of life with a delivery at times both surreal and urgent.
