The Mosfets unleash their self-titled EP alongside new single “Keith Is A Blues Artist,” a raw and unfiltered garage rock release that captures the band at their most instinctive and unapologetic. Blending fuzz-drenched garage punk, neo-psychedelic textures, and bluesy grit, the project embraces imperfection, spontaneity, and the kind of chaotic energy that can only come from making music purely for the love of it.

Written from a mix of dreams, jokes, and everyday absurdities, The Mosfets EP rejects overthinking in favour of instinct. “Most of it just came from my love of songwriting and collaborating with my friends,” says frontman Keith Mosfet. “We did it for ourselves, it was fun. I’d do this 100 times.”

That spirit carries through every track. Equal parts electric and defiant, the EP leans into rough edges and embraces the band’s natural chemistry rather than sanding it down. “It taught me not to worry so much about polish,” Keith explains. “Rough and raw is good. Our flaws are also our greatest strengths.”

At the centre of the release is “Keith Is A Blues Artist,” a hypnotic, blues-driven garage rock track that began quite literally in a dream. “I was at a party in my dream and put on a random vinyl,” Keith recalls. “This song is what played.” Waking up, he quickly recorded the demo, capturing the melody almost exactly as it had appeared.

The track channels the spirit of early ‘60s blues and garage rock while twisting it into something distinctly their own. Rather than drawing from modern revival acts, The Mosfets looked further back, pulling inspiration from artists like The Sonics, John Lee Hooker, and Them. “We’re not trying to sound like The Black Keys or The White Stripes,” Keith says. “We’re trying to sound like what they were listening to.”

There’s a tongue-in-cheek element at play, too. The title itself came from a band joke, with members Maarten and Ilari agreeing to record the song on one condition: that it be called “Keith Is A Blues Artist.” The result is both a loving nod to classic blues tropes and a playful jab at the band’s frontman.

Recorded on a Tascam 388 reel-to-reel, both the EP and its lead single fully embrace a mid-fi, analog warmth that prioritizes feel over perfection. Much of the project came together in the aftermath of a show in Hamburg, Germany, during a hungover but highly productive session at Yeah Yeah Yeah Studios. “We were very hungover, yet played magnificently,” Keith laughs.
