Prostitute by Steve Gullick
Prostitute has announced their signing to Mute, a move that places the band on one of the most influential and forward-thinking labels in contemporary music. The partnership arrives alongside news of two forthcoming vinyl editions of their project Attempted Martyr, which will be released on 13 March, as well as a new video for the track “Mr Dada.”
The signing aligns naturally with the band’s approach. Prostitute has built a reputation on sound that blurs structure and abrasion, folding noise, tension, and emotional depth into something uniquely their own. Mute’s long history of supporting artists who thrive outside traditional boundaries makes it a fitting home for the band’s next chapter.
As part of the announcement, Prostitute has shared details surrounding the vinyl releases of Attempted Martyr. Each edition is crafted with its own visual identity, reinforcing the project's thematic weight and extending its atmosphere into physical form. While complete packaging information is still forthcoming, an early glimpse suggests that the vinyl will serve as both a record and a collectible that reflects the project’s internal world.
The band has also released the video for “Mr Dada,” which captures the jagged and restless character of the track. The video moves through a stream of clips, candid glimpses, and fragmented imagery that feels like memory and instinct colliding in real time. Its pacing mirrors the song’s pull between chaos and clarity, giving the track a vivid and unpredictable visual dimension.
“Mr Dada” offers the first look into the landscape explored on Attempted Martyr. The record appears to balance force and vulnerability, holding space for both abrasion and emotional resonance. Prostitute has continuously operated in that tension, yet the new material suggests a more deliberate and sharply focused evolution.
With two vinyl editions on the way, a new video already circulating, and a label partnership that expands their reach, Prostitute enters this era with momentum. Attempted Martyr is shaping up to be a significant statement for the band, and Mute seems prepared to support it without compromising the raw intensity that defines their work.
