about

A tight collection of angular, post-punk inflected jams sung in English with a deep, grungy monotone drawl. The lyrics, heavy in detail and imagery, tackle systemic injustice with a feeling of boiling frustration that rumbles through the aggressive grooves of the music. Recommended.

-The Modern Folk Music of America

A cracking album full of attitude. This may not have the sheer lysergic psych of Serpentina Satelite but what it gains is immense; the songs are lyrically astute and politically charged. Musically this not be punk but in passion, sneering attitude and socially aware lyrics this is PURE PUNK.

-Dayz Of Purple And Orange

An album that you’ll learn to sing along to, that you’ll listen to on repeat and sing to your kids or as you warm your hands on the burning rubble of fascist institutions.

-Global Psychedelia

Favoring rhythm over posturing is what makes NMC a stirring prospect, eschewing soloing in favor of tense dynamics. They sound like a stuttering bunch of machines; cold and injured by the terrible fucking world around them. This is an angry band, and we need angry bands at the moment.

-Colourhorizon

No Mightier Creatures consists of 7 songs that are trying to be musically cacophony with a swirling raw bluesy feeling, politically edged sharp lyrics, with a correct used of the F word, under a Velvetish Underground vein, reverberated at times, noisy at others, with impressive a la Lou Reed speech-word angrily and indignant vocals, creating a dark punkish addictive mood! AN ALBUM THAT PUSHES THE BORDERS.

-TimeMazine Fanzine

Records like this one from No Mightier Creatures need to exist from time to time just to demonstrate that it takes no more than non-conformity with the whole fucking world's most crazy freaks in order to, sole and exclusively, say fuck all!. Listen loud!

-The Blog that Celebrates Itself

A mesmerizing politically charged cacophony of swirling psych rock.

-Primal Music Blog

No Mightier Creatures often finds Gomez reflecting back on the time he spent living in the United States as he attempts to shine a light on the hypocrisy hidden away in both the suburbs and the big city; this album could be the spark that ignites a rebellion across the galaxy.

-Cool Dad Music

Listening to NMC you have the feeling of wandering in the naked desert, the steppes, the vast cactuses. Renato's voice is strong and very expressive; the lyrics speak of economic crisis, politics, people's borders. Very good album.

-Gew Gaw Fanzine

Dionysian without being sordid, close to the listener for having its feet on the ground instead of unfolding over the sky, No Mightier Creatures’ debut is full of blues, that is blues conceived by the losers, the freaks and weirdoes. The eternal outcasts.

-Apostillas desde la Disidencia

A stark, rough and direct production; NMC presents sounds rarely explored in our country (Peru), which are quiet hard to label. We can only say that it is rock from the insides, organic, meat and bones, to be appreciated and enjoyed in its crude nudity.

-Tesoros Mundanos

credits

released January 8, 2018

No Mightier Creatures is a new project by Peruvian musician and poet Renato Gomez, former guitarist of the space rock act Serpentina Satelite. This time around, Renato presents an album of 7 songs distilled with a more straightforward approach; cohesive rock with punk dynamics, centered on rhythm and repetition.

No Mightier Creatures grew around a visual/writing research of knots and pieces of urban decay around cities in Europe. The visuals became symptoms of economic crisis, political intervention,precariousness and borders, igniting new song writing and lyrics.

The album was recorded in Lima, Peru, with former Serpentina Satelite bandmates Dolmo (guitar) and Felix Dextre (bass), and with Arturo Quispe (drums), member of the psych-prog band Cholo Visceral.
