All Mt. Doubt News
Mt. Doubt’s new EP ‘Moon Landings’ out now!
"...easily Mt. Doubt's poppiest sounding track to date with its catchy synth lines and perfectly balanced harmonies."
- The Skinny
"...mixes stark, jangling guitars with
confessional lyricism..." - Team Rock
"...distinctive vocals and accomplished songwriting..."
- The Scotsman
Following the critical acclaim of their previous EP, The Loneliness Of The TV Watchers, Mt. Doubt's new EP Moon Landings is out now via Scottish Fiction. Its is available on Spotify and Apple Music now.
To celebrate the release, the entire EP is streaming exclusively on For The Rabbits now. Mt. Doubt also recently shared the EP track Teeming, which is available to download for free via the band's Soundcloud page.
The video for single Mouthwash premiered on The Skinny and you can also watch it via the band's YouTube channel.
The EP flows effortlessly, combining uptempo indie rock melodies with synth-infused beats and dark undertones throughout. Tracks such as ‘Conduits’ and ‘Teeming’ ooze Leo Bargery’s signature melancholic lyricism and distinctively deep baritone, while ‘A Shy Distance’ and ‘Moon Landings’ use scattered electronics to create something truly atmospheric. Lead single Mouthwash is undeniably catchy from the offset, sounding akin to the likes of Franz Ferdinand’s infectious indie pop roots.
Talking about the EP, Bargery explains “it all really benefits from the input of Ryan Firth who has recently become more involved in the whole recording process with Mt. Doubt. His keys really elevate a lot of the material as do the lovely vocals of Annie Booth, which are a bit more of a focal point here than they have been in the past!”
Starting out as Bargery’s solo project, Mt. Doubt has since expanded into a collective of five musicians, each bringing something unique to the table. Since the release of their critically acclaimed albums In Awe Of Nothing and My Past Is A Quiet Beast, and most recently The Loneliness Of The TV Watchers, Mt. Doubt have received praise from the likes of The Scotsman, The National and Team Rock, as well as BBC 6Music and BBC Radio Scotland to name but a few. They are also no strangers to the Scottish live circuit, having performed at T In the Park, Brew At The Bog and supported We Were Promised Jetpacks, Admiral Fallow and White Lies amongst others.
Catch Mt. Doubt live at the following dates:
12th November Surf Café, Tyneside

Edinburgh's Mt. Doubt have released their instantly infectious single, Mouthwash, out now via Scottish Fiction Records. It is available to buy and stream, alongside Acrylic's Where I Lie, on Bandcamp, Spotify and iTunes now.
The single premiered on The List as well as Roddy Hart's BBC Radio Scotland show and is also available to stream on Mt. Doubt's Soundcloud page now.
An uptempo sonic delight, Mouthwash is filled with jangling riffs and synth-filled melodies throughout. These are combined effortlessly with front-man Leo Bargery’s distinctively, deep baritone, sounding akin to the likes of The National’s Matt Berlinger. With the addition of some twinkling vocal harmonies and rich poetic lyricism, it’s a hugely infectious slice of indie-rock.
Of the track, Bargery explains: "I think of Mouthwash as a bit of a sister track to 'Reference Books' from our most recent EP. Whereas the former focuses on the lust-rush of forays into new relationships, Mouthwash, explores the opposite end of that experience; the gradual disintegration, the subsequent moping, the self-pity…”

Reflecting on the everyday sense of disillusionment and fear that affects all of us, The Loneliness Of The TV Watchers is a heartfelt collection of indie-rock ballads. From the luscious harmonies and uptempo beats of Tourists - which is inspired by Bargery’s fear of flying - to the poetic lyricism and sweeping melodies of ‘Purity’, each track offers an insight into the banality of everyday life. As Bargery’s impassioned, deep baritone flows, with strong shades of the likes of The National or Frightened Rabbit, each anthemic creation tugs at the heartstrings with a twinkling honesty.
