Aja Ireland Returns with ‘Moult Mouth’ EP and Two Videos

The new EP from Aja Ireland arrives as a compact blast of ideas. Moult Mouth runs six tracks and pushes the Nottingham producer’s sound into some fresh territory while holding onto the kind of high-pressure noise she’s built her live reputation on.

Ireland has always moved between extravagant visual concepts and the budget realities of a working musician. Here, two tracks get the video treatment, made with Joey Holder and Nicholas Delap. The results pull her long-running alien costume aesthetic into a glossier, more digitally twisted space, a natural extension of what she’s been doing for years but sharper around the edges.

Holder and Ireland also performed together last October at an art award festival in Italy, a reminder that this team-up isn’t new. The collaboration feels lived-in, not patched together for a promo cycle.

Moult Mouth doesn’t need images to hold attention, but the videos don’t hurt. They clarify an artistic direction that’s been growing louder and more specific with each release. Ireland remains a tightrope walker between high-concept design and direct sonic impact, and this EP balances both without much wobble.
