£23.99 – 1xLP, Limited Edition Blue Coloured, Gatefold Vinyl (plus DL Code)

On the band’s second album, Provincetown, Bottum and Holman sharpened their songwriting and production choices with an adrenalized agenda. Mixed by Steven James Aguilar (The Head and the Heart, Moby), the album is more focused and cohesive, showcasing themes of encouragement and support for the queer community in ways that may be seen as provocative or unorthodox – it’s loud and abrasive rock music with a message. Standouts like “Showgirls” and “Take It From Me” reinforce the band’s inspiring sense of confidence and love for their community, while tracks like “Piggy” and “Hush (featuring J Mascis)” feature intense and biting distortion that elevates the album’s energy and strong throughline. If Man on Man introduced the world to the gay anthems of two supportive lovers, Provincetown turns it up a notch – M.O.M. are taking risks, putting themselves out there and shouting for what they believe in.
