Mamiffer is an American band based in Seattle, Washington. It started out as a solo project for former Pyramids and Everlovely Lightningheart member Faith Coloccia that later saw several session musicians and collaborators, most consistently Aaron Turner of Isis fame and who would later become Coloccia's husband. Turner and Coloccia also perform in House of Low Culture together. Mamiffer has released several albums, splits and collaborations through various record labels, most prominently Turner's now-defunct Hydra Head Records and Turner and Coloccia's own SIGE Records. The band is known for its collaborations, including albums recorded with Locrian, Circle and Daniel Menche; and working with session/guest artists from bands including These Arms Are Snakes, Helms Alee, Sunn O))) and Wolves in the Throne Room.
The genesis of Mamiffer was born out of creative ideas from Faith Coloccia's then-defunct band Everlovely Lightningheart. Coloccia invited Aaron Turner to participate, but later grew to become "a more permanent member." Coloccia and Turner would also later began dating and eventually got married.
Oggi rubo il fiato alle mie ansie, perciò
Se guido in fretta sotto il sole, giusto perché
Necessito contatto fisico più che intimo e subito.
No complicazioni, zero o poca teoria, non più
Discorsi oziosi e gente in posa, ma solo
Voci amiche, caldi sguardi e voglia di disconnettermiâ¦confondermi.
Quando il mammifero è ciò che ti resta di me
A corpo libero, in tutto l'istinto che c'è.
Solo un mammifero è ciò che ora cerco da te.
Vivo compulsivo e senza più gravità .
Oggi non mi voglio critico. Neanche necessariamente lucido.
Solo muovermi sudando disarticolato, confondermi distinguermi.
Voglia di ballare, però forse non so non dirmi cosa fare, perché non lo farò.
