Slugcrust announce debut album ‘Ecocide’
SLUGCRUST have announced their debut album!
Titled Ecocide, the upcoming album from the South Carolina-based grindcore outfit (that features members of WVRM) is their debut full-length album and is scheduled to be released in September this year, making their label debut at new home Prosthetic Records.
The upcoming debut album was engineered by guitarist Derick Caperton, before being mixed and mastered by Cody Davidson of SANGUISUGABOGG. Speaking about the upcoming debut album, the band says, “we are incredibly stoked to announce that SLUGCRUST have signed with Prosthetic Records for the unveiling of our new full-length LP, Ecocide, and other future releases in the works. To us, Ecocide represents our rebirth as artists, gnawing our way to the surface of the unforgiving scorched earth that has been our lives these past few years. This record is the firing of a gun before the race, the tumultuous calling card, the scorched earth foundation we only want to build upon in years to come. We sincerely hope you fuckers enjoy it.”
Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new music video for the first song lifted from the upcoming debut; Echoless. Speaking about the new song, the band adds, “Echoless is entropy to oblivion from start to finish, both musically and lyrically. It is a defiant chant of personality amid a malevolent and dispersing force, the sound of nothing dying.”
