Clutter

In a fizz of punk-spirited, giddy energy and a tumult of raw feelings about growing up and the often-chaotic pursuit of a full and fun life comes the debut LP from Stockholm's Clutter. Sugar Rush rings with the exact spark of excitement that its name suggests. "We thought about lots of different titles but I always landed in candy territory every time," grins Hilda Ander. Co-vocalist Emma French nods: "Sugar Rush really captures the feeling that anything could happen_" Though Sugar Rush is packed full of spontaneity and instinctiveness, the band have reached this debut album milestone not because they've just let anything happen, but because they've actively made it happen themselves. Completed by guitarist Ove Jerndal and drummer Ville Scott (Hilda and Emma both alternate between guitar and bass), the band have crafted the entire world of Clutter from the ground up. Having played separately and, in the case of Ove and Ville, together in various childhood bands, by the time Clutter's members united at their music high school, they'd already had more experience than most teens of their age. Without a huge amount of options to play underage shows in Stockholm, they'd put on DIY gigs in their local youth centre. When they started to record - releasing charmingly scrappy debut EP Clutter Loves You last year and receiving immediate attention from the likes of So Young, Stereogum, Dork and The Line of Best Fit - they kept everything in house still, with Ove producing all the band's material from a basement studio in Stockholm. Influenced by DIY bands from across the generations, from Bikini Kill to Pavement, Sonic Youth and the fictional universe of Scott Pilgrim vs The World, they've made an asset of their youth, prioritising immediacy and energy over pre-prescribed paths and polish. However now, having spent the year since Loves You touring constantly, coming over to the UK multiple times and playing bucket list support shows with Hinds and ShitKid, the still only 22-year-old quartet have found a way to maintain this hedonistic punk energy and level it all up.
