M(h)aol: Attachment Styles (Peak Vinyl/colour/reissue) LP

Based in Dublin, Cork, Belfast, London, and Bristol, the Irish intersectional feminist five-piece M(h)aol have gained a reputation for their engaging and invigorating live shows. The group’s 2023 album Attachment Styles is about social connection, queerness, and healing where the listener goes on a journey. When vocalist Róisín Nic Ghearailt was writing the lyrics, she used as an overarching theme the theory of attachment styles which examines the impact our inter-familial relationships and society have on how we relate to one another. Consisting of Róisín (vocals, she/her), Constance Keane (drums, she/her), Jamie Hyland (bass, she/her), Zoë Greenway (bass, she/her), and Sean Nolan (guitar, he/him), M(h)aol apply a DIY ethos to all aspects of the band. Attachment Styles was originally released on TULLE, an independent women-led record label co-founded by Constance. It was recorded, mixed, mastered, and produced by Jamie, and all accompanying artwork and music videos were created by Zoë.
