Scream Mountains early inception and musical direction can be traced all the way back to a lighthearted conversation between Paul (vocals/guitar) and Jordy (guitar) in 2019. Said conversation centred around ideas of creating an innocent, pure and fun side-project to ‘Triggerlip’, an alternative punk-rock band they had been writing and performing in, from which the duo met. For a while, a mere passing conversation was all that it was until Paul took the initiative to start demoing tracks and sharing it with Jordy. At this point in time, Jordy had been developing a keen interest in recording and music production and proposed to take the first two demos ‘Ten Forty Five’ and ‘Bunkin’ to the studio. Pleased with the results and vibe of the tracks, the only thing that had stopped the duo on their path was a question of “what next?”. The answer was ‘Scream Mountain’, and soon enough Watto (vocalist from Triggerlip) and drummer Nelly (Convulse, Grenade Brain) joined the indie-rock outfit in early 2020. The band staying true to their mantra of self-producing their music, soon followed up with acoustic track ‘Blue’ and their first written and recorded song under the completed lineup; ‘Haze’.

The band’s new single ‘Proximity’ is out now, and with that, there’s no sign of Scream Mountain slowing down any time soon.
