Mutation is the second studio album by Australian rock group, RedHook. The album was announced in August 2024 and released on 22 November 2024. It peaked at number 15 on the ARIA charts; their first to enter the top 100.

Band member Emmy Mack said "Mutation felt like the perfect name for this record because we wanted it to feel like an evolution in every single way, not just in RedHook's sound, but also in the culture around us. We're here to shift narratives, offer new perspectives and dismantle old ways of thinking."

Reception

Kris Peters from Heavy Mag said "Mutation is the product of a band who are completely comfortable with and within themselves. It is a tribute to the hard work and dedication of a band who will – if the musical Gods have any respectability – mark their names amongst the best this country has to offer."

In a postive review, Georgia Haskins from Wall of Sound said "While the juvenile and fun moments of the album are something to hook you in, what really keeps you around are the important conversations had throughout the entire 11 tracks. Through an open letter-like approach, no topic remains untouched- femininity, abuse, recovery and self-expression".

Sarah Downs from Rolling Stone Australia said "RedHook's second album Mutation definitely lives up to its name. The heavy alt-rock powerhouse have cranked everything up a notch, blending alt-pop, metal, punk, and everything in between."

Ian Kenworthy from Punktastic decribed the album as "a sugar rush that's so desperate for your attention its best ideas get lost in a sea of meaningless content." Kenworthy called the album "the sonic equivalent of TikTok."
