Thotcrime announce new album ‘D1G1T4L_DR1FT’
THOTCRIME have announced a new album!
Titled D1G1T4L_DR1FT, the upcoming album from the multinational cybergrind band is their second full-length record and is scheduled to be released in October this year, making their label debut at new home Prosthetic Records.
Self-produced by the band before being mixed and mastered by the group’s very own K. Salmon, the usual pitfalls and tribulations of getting a group of people into a room to write and record an album do not apply here. THOTCRIME’s approach to crafting D1G1T4L_DR1FT is an embrace of technological advances and DIY collaboration via Discord servers, instant messengers and online community – with collaboration already playing a large part in their growing discography.
Speaking about the upcoming album, producer K. Salmon says, “the new album represents us moving into new territories musically. Over the last few split releases we’ve been exploring the world of heavy guitar music and electronic music a lot further outside the field of the sounds on our debut album. We really feel that this album brings together all those new sounds in a powerful and cohesive way.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria.
Speaking about the new song, guitarist Malady Jane says, “Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria shows the sort of approach we’ve taken with our new album, drawing from our loves of both heavy guitar-oriented music and more electronic pop and dance styles. Lyrically, the song deals with the way that neurodivergence and mental illness can make you feel the world is out to get you.”
