Based in Dublin, Cork, Belfast, and London, the Irish intersectional feminist four piece have
gained a reputation for their engaging and invigorating live shows. Signed to Merge off an
electric SXSW set, M(h)aol re-issued their debut album Attachment Styles and now return with
their first release as a four piece. The song “Pursuit” “ is built out of frustration that has
accumulated over the past 30 years of being a woman in public,” says drummer Constance
Keane.
Consisting of Constance Keane (She/Her), Jamie Hyland (She/Her), Zoë Greenway (She/Her),
and Sean Nolan (He/Him), Attachment Styles is about social connection, queerness and healing
where the listener goes on a journey. Upon its release, Attachment Styles received 4* reviews
from both Arena on RTÉ Radio 1 and The Guardian, was profiled by Rolling Stone UK, received
8/10 from Hot Press, and the band were featured on the cover of The Thin Air.
With the release of their EP Gender Studies in 2021, M(h)aol tackled the structural oppression
of women and gender minorities. Gender Studies was praised by Beats Per Minute (NYC), DIY,
So Young, Nialler9, BBC 6Music’s Mary Anne Hobbs, RTE, Matt Wilkinson, 2FM, among many
others.
M(h)aol apply a DIY ethos to all aspects of the band. Attachment Styles and Gender Studies
originally released on TULLE, an independent women-led record label co-founded by
Constance. The album was recorded, mixed, mastered and produced by Jamie Hyland and all
accompanying artwork and music videos were created by Zoë Greenway.
