Hot Mulligan unleash a rush of motion and feeling with “It Smells Like Fudge Axe In Here,” a standout from their full length album ‘The Sound A Body Makes When It’s Still.’ The record charges forward with sharp choruses, tight hooks, and the voice of Tades Sanville vaulting between grit and clarity. Songs like “Moving to Bed Bug Island,” “And a Big Load,” “Carbon Monoxide Hotel,” “Slumdog Scungillionaire,” and “My Dad Told Me to Write a Nice One for Nana So This Is It” give the album a shape that feels fully realized, pulling shimmering guitars, quick rhythmic shifts, and emotional detail into one cohesive world. The new video for “It Smells Like Fudge Axe In Here,” directed by Michael Herrick, turns an Italian chess match into a courtyard eruption, matching the track’s punch and restless spirit. The band balances explosive energy and quiet reflection in a way that carries real presence, making this album a major moment for post emo’s current wave. This release shows Hot Mulligan creating some of the most expressive and cohesive work of their career, marked by fearless songwriting and a dynamic spirit that resonates long after the final chord.
