Building on the energetic swirl of2023’s Information Blip and their well-received EPs, Search Results’ follow-up Go Mutant takes its title seriously, bringing idiosyncrasies to the fore, and at under just 35 minutes, it manages to sound both frantic and precise. Over the course of 13 songs,they have created an immersive, bold piece of work, a fitting musical statement for a band with such interesting influences.
In terms of songwriting,Fionn Brennan and Jack Condon are equally comfortable with not knowing where each other’s songs emerge from. This ambiguity is well-evidenced on Go Mutant-sometimes the vocals are muffled, as on the scuzzy Mountaintop, sometimes they are clear and almost guttural on something like Be Laurel with its driving guitars,and sometimes they sound like they have been recorded down a well, as on the wonky, skittering Steeplejacks.
Harnessing a tradition from Pavement to Yo La Tengo on something like the jangly ‘Nellypot’, or the rag-taggle world of ‘Wrinkle’, with its nice swinging drums, the light guitars of ‘Carricks’, and the classic indie of ‘Amaray’, Condon agrees, “Yo La Tengo and Animal Collective are so inspiring musically. The creativity that both bands have is really necessary with the limited band members. I am always amazed at how much Yo La Tengo can do with just three people, and how much fun it looks like they’re having after all this time.”
