Carson Coma is a Hungarian alternative rock band formed in 2018, which won the MTV Europe Music Award for Best Hungarian Act in 2022. [1] They released their first album Corduroy Club in April 2019, which included the singles "What A Time To Be Alive" and "Song About My Grandma". Since their first album, on which the majority of songs were in English, they have switched to producing Hungarian-language music. They have subsequently released three further albums, as well as seven non-album singles, and an EP.

History

The band released their first single, titled "What A Time To Be Alive", in September 2018, to positive critical reception. [2] They released a further single, "Song About My Grandma", in April 2019, and then their debut album Corduroy Club (on which both songs featured) in the same month. The album was described as "1960s Hungarian beat and dance music-inspired" by Müpa Budapest. [3][4]

2020 saw an increase in recognition for the band, as they won the Fonogram Award for Best Hungarian Discovery of the Year in April of that year.[5] Their second album, Lesz, ami lesz, was released in October, and featured four previously released singles: "Peti és Én", "Én még sohasem", "Egyszerűen semmi sem egyszerű", and "Na mindegy". [6]

In March 2022, the band released their third album, entitled Digitális/Analóg. A month later, they achieved their first chart success, with the single Immunissá válunk entering at #38 on the Hungarian Single Top 40 in April - the album would reach #35 in July.[7][8] They also performed for the first time at Sziget Festival in August. [9]

The latest album, IV, was released in June of 2023, and featured the singles FELDOBOM A KÖVET and FANTOMREZGÉS, the former of which was noted for its strong political message. [10] [11] They performed a sold-out concert in Budapest Park to promote the album that month,[12] and then organised a "mini-festival" there in September featuring 8 Hungarian performers. [13]

In early 2024, the band released the single Frida Kahlo featuring Beton.Hofi, using the eponymous Mexican artist as a device to demonstrate contempt for mainstream culture.[14] Two more singles were subsequently released, titled Paul McCartney halott? and Orrvérzés. Having reached their 5th anniversary the year before, the band performed a celebratory concert at the MVM Dome in April featuring their greatest hits and guest performances from Beton.Hofi and Ivan & The Parazol, from which a live album was released.
